Lithium batteries are already 90% efficient, how do you get 20% better efficiency than that?
Is he talking about density instead?
maybe it's 20% less inefficient.
so 90% efficient could be called 10% inefficient. and 20% of 10% is 2%. so 20% better efficiency gets you a 92% efficient battery.
it's a stretch yes, but stranger things have happened in the funny lands of title crafting
that sounds like something marketing would come up with
Could be gains in weight as well. A significantly lighter battery will have gains in range efficiency for a vehicle if it was much lighter that the other.
