Lithium Ions can deliver major amperage on demand and the can deliver it when not on demand.

Lol!

That’s about it, ain’t it!

Like I said on another thread, it’s one thing to put them into cell phones and laptops.

It’s quite another to put them into how-many hundred ton aircraft with two or three hundred people on board flying at 30,000 feet over major metropolitan areas...

They have technology with a much safer MTBF... weighs a bit more, probably ONE LESS person per flight would easily cover it.

I don't know if the rule still applies, but in 2008 they banned airplane passengers from carrying spare lithium ion batteries in checked luggage. But you know, jet fuel also packs a lot of energy. http://safetravel.dot.gov/whats_new_batteries.html FWIW, the new Airbus planes also use lithium ion batteries.
