EV Revolution: Miracle of Donut Lab, electric car battery will be charged 80% in just 4.5 minutes, gave a befitting reply to those calling it a scam
News India Live, Digital Desk: The biggest challenge facing electric vehicles has been the long time taken for charging and range anxiety. But Donut Lab has done something that has shocked the entire industry. The company’s solid-state battery has set a new record by charging from 0 to 80 percent in just 4.5 minutes. What is this technology of Donut Lab? (Key Technology Highlights)Solid-state batteries are considered the future of existing lithium-ion batteries. Donut Lab has made several improvements to it: Ultra-fast charging: While a normal EV takes 30-45 minutes to reach 80% even with a fast charger, this technology makes it even faster than charging a smartphone (4.5 minutes). Solid electrolyte: Traditional batteries have liquid electrolyte which poses a fire risk. Donut Lab’s solid-state battery is completely safe and the possibility of fire in it is almost zero. Long lifespan and high density: This technology increases the lifespan of the battery and provides more power (High Energy Density) in less weight. Silencing the Critics. For a long time, some experts in the tech world were calling the claims of this startup as ‘scam’ or ‘fake’. Their argument was that it is impossible to handle the heat generated by such fast charging. Donut Lab has released live demo and lab data to prove that their thermal management technology is effective and this is not a paper claim but a reality. What does this mean for the common man? If this technology comes into mass production, then: Experience like petrol pump: In the time you fill petrol, in the same time your car is fully charged. Cheaper electric vehicles: Smaller batteries will have longer ranges due to higher energy density, which could lower the price of cars. Benefits to the environment: Longer-lasting batteries mean less e-waste.
