My question that I would like to know (and I'm sure many others would like to know too) is this: With the new quick charging lithium-ion batteries (Altair's new lithium-ion battery recharges 100% in under 3 minutes -- other are advertising 10 minutes or less) Does it cost more to charge a regular battery over night (6 to 8 hours total time) than a new quick charging battery?? -- OR STATED ANOTHER WAY -- Which costs more to recharge? A quick 3 minute charge for a lithium-ion battery or a standard battery that takes 6 to 8 hours over night?? Thanks in advance for considering this question. -- JJ TOPIC: Green Technology — I’ve been very interested in all the new battery technology as of lately — AND — there has been much exciting news.
