A couple of weeks ago I ran across a new battery (concept) that is fixing to be launched. It is called the OHM battery. I thought there may be some interest here on the forum. I am including emails i received and some of the electronics world feed back on it. There are several here on the forum that have gone for lighter stronger batteries. Well here is one that goes a little further. It is called the OHM battery. The batteries are LiFePO4 (lithium iron phosphate.) A form of super capacitor. I have seen these in the RC community in small batteries for the drones and airplanes. Check it out.

Here are a couple of emails I received.
I just wanted to give you a quick update on Ohm's launch date. Coming up on this Monday, August 17th, we're launching an Indiegogo campaign and you'll be able to pre-order Ohm. After the campaign goes live but before we publicize it, I'll send another email to give you first dibs on our early bird specials. Most people will end up paying $199 for Ohm, but we'll have a limited quantity available for $169 for our early backers. If you've got friends who might want to get in early too, you can just forward this email and have them sign up on our site: Ohm - The car battery is finally evolving. You can also share to Facebook or Twitter by clicking on these buttons:
We're excited about finally launching and I hope you are too!
Until soon,

Hey there!
Ohm is now LIVE on Indiegogo: https://www.indiegogo.com/projects/ohm-a-smarter-car-battery/x/11536342
We've got a limited number of early bird deals plus a bunch more information about Ohm and its development process. We think Ohm is a really cool product and that it represents a fundamentally new approach to an old industry. I hope you'll consider backing us and becoming a part of that!

Hey there!
Well, we've had a pretty insane past couple of days. On Monday, we launched our Indiegogo campaign and funded half of it in a single day. We're HUGELY appreciative of your support! Yesterday, we presented at Y Combinator's demo day.

It went great, and we're excited at how fast things are moving! Speaking of things moving quickly, we're getting close to running out of our early bird deals on our Indiegogo campaign,

If you have an interest contact them and get their take on it. I have no ties or financial interest in this product. Just the messenger.
