It’s got to be said: "Why didn’t our trade wait until we had better technology to support electric vehicles, rather than jumping in head first, only to get burned.... again".
Trevor Jackson has invented a battery that will allow an electric car to travel 1,500 miles without having to stop to recharge the battery – a distance more than four times as far as the best and most expensive model currently on the road.
Apparently this battery is far simpler and cheaper to make than any of the batteries currently in use in millions of electric vehicles around the world – and, unlike them, it can easily be recycled.
Few will have heard of Jackson’s extraordinary invention. The reason, he says, is that since he and his company Metalectrique Ltd came up with a prototype a decade ago, he has faced determined opposition from the automobile industry establishment.
It’s like the ever lasting light bulb story all over again!!!
LEVC and Dynamo should be on their way to Devon check-books in hand, to see Trevor Jackson first thing Monday morning!
