After reading more on the AER Zinc-Air battery, it promises high WattHrs/Kg, but only about equal in the WtHrs/L. It must be a very light weight affair. Needing air chambers, it costs it in the volume that it occupies. They don't talk about rechargeability, but earlier looks at this battery made me think they could only get about 50 recharges before it was trash. They may have made improvements here and I tend to think this more if Duracell has shown obvious interest. But even if they got it up to 200 recharges, it would still be lacking. But 300 - 500?, then they would be talking. No mention of this figure on the web site that I could find, but I didnt' look in every corner.
