Wow! A battery that can magically transport itself 600 miles! What a world we live in!

Or, you know, it's a no sense claim with made up numbers.

I have been seeing multiple battery tech claims per week, ever week, for the past 30 years and well over 99% of the claims are bull. Dumb claims like this battery goes 600 miles" tells you all you need to know.

Show me the money, then we'll talk

We are almost there. Doesn't the average internal combustion engine car go something like 600 to 1000 miles on a tank of fuel? If so just a little bit more and the "range anxiety" argument will no longer be valid.
