Yup. A battery would be a THE big one.

I think a lot of people think breakthroughs in panels etc. Not going to happen.

The real problem is cars, and the problem with electric cars is it takes too long to charge them.

If you could pick up a charge in 5 minutes or even 15 while you enjoy a starbucks, you could drive from San Diego to Sacramento in a reasonable amount of time and even drive around Sacramento when you arrived.

It's a really fascinating idea. Capacitors can put out huge amounts of power over very short periods. So they have the power to make land speed records.

In addition it would probably be a game changer in other industries, camera batteries, computer batteries.

So if I want to invest... speculate really on it if I invested in Zenn that really wouldn't cut it. I'd have to wait for it to IPO right and buy that time all the other insiders would have grabbed the fair value. So how would one take advantage of a game breaker like this?
