New 6LR61 alkaline battery that can be fully charged in less than 13 minutes

According to foreign media reports, as we all know, charging speed has always been a major pain point for electric vehicles. Last month, Porsche launched a new charging station that can fully charge electric vehicles in 15 minutes, which made the luxury sports car brand hit the headlines of various media for a while. However, there is such a little-known company that charges even faster than Porsche.

According to Atlis Motor Vehicles, an electric truck startup in Arizona, USA, it recently announced that it has completed the development of its first large-scale prototype battery pack and can fully charge the battery in less than 13 minutes. Industry first According to the company, its engineers originally tried to fully charge the above battery in 15 minutes, but in actual testing, they only took 12 minutes and 35 seconds to fully charge, setting an industry record.

"We have completed initial testing of our prototype battery pack, which has extremely fast charging speeds," said Mark Hanchett, founder and CEO of Atlis, in a statement. "We are very proud to announce that we have done better than expected, charging the 3 kWh battery pack in just 12 minutes and 35 seconds, which is 2 minutes and 25 seconds faster than expected." Atlis was founded in 2016 with the goal of developing the first full-size battery-powered pickup truck in the United States, with the same advantages as traditional trucks.

To achieve this ambitious goal, the company also promised to fully charge electric vehicles in 15 minutes. "This is key to proving our technology - battery charging speed is still the biggest obstacle to the widespread adoption of electric vehicles," explained Hanchett. In the end, the company succeeded in doing this and even exceeded their own expectations.

Cooling system is the key It turns out that the key to Atlis' lithium-ion battery breaking the record lies in an often overlooked part of the electric vehicle battery, the cooling system. The cooling system is the key to fast charging. "Proper management of battery temperature is still overlooked by many electric vehicle manufacturers, but it is one of the most critical factors for battery performance and battery life," said Hatchett. The automaker also claims on its website that its current record charging speed is just the beginning. It wrote: "Today, our cars can be fully charged in 15 minutes, and in the future, our cars will be fully charged in 5 minutes." If this is not impressive enough, Atlis' battery pack can also be sized according to the needs of customers. In addition, the company has also kept its promise to provide affordable charging charges and free for the first 5,000 customers.
