Lyten's battery with Li-S architecture is for sure the future

What was a problem with Northvolt and led to bankruptcy was trying to copy the standard NMC (LiNiMnCoO2) battery architecture. There was no chance of getting everything that was needed.

The Lyten idea is to start something completely new that has the potential to succeed. You shouldn't copy what others do. That this battery is also a little less complex in structure. Li-S battery is also very energy-dense, it is a good basis for development. The weakness of the Li-S battery is that it has not yet achieved a higher possible number of charge cycles than 1500 within 70%. It is lower than half of Lifepo4 cycles. There is extensive work being done to develop Li-S batteries in the USA, South Korea and Australia. One effort is to improve the number of possible charging cycles. Show claims that you have managed to increase this significantly. Li-S is absolutely the battery for all types of flying activities, as batteries are so much lighter than NMC and LiFePo4 batteries, that they will also be significantly lighter and also faster to charge. Li-S and Na-ion already show the future where we will probably be within five years. Completely convinced that there will be a need for Li-S batteries in Europe. Convinced that this with the Northvolt plant with Lyten as the takeover, can be really good future. And good for Sweden. With their high energy density and low weight, these batteries are perfect for everything flying, from drones to larger aircraft.

Wide temperature tolerance Li-S batteries can withstand both cold and hot environments, which is important for their use in different vehicles and climate zones. Less prone to thermal runaway and heat dissipation in the event of a fault, reducing the risk of fire and explosion. No nickel, manganese, cobalt, or graphite means no foreign-controlled minerals. The low weight is a big plus.

That it can then be difficult to successfully build a business on the other side of the globe, well that's something completely different. The chance is there, they can succeed. That there is actually a Swede Lars Herlitz among the founders. It will be interesting to follow.

I believe in this project. Happily, everything indicates that Lyten has found the solution that could be the best in a number of ways. The important thing is if they manage to increase the possibility of increasing the number of charging cycles. It should be possible. Lyten's problem is getting money from production in time and support from investors who know what they are doing is interesting. But the profits are still a few years away. Look at this video:

See: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=olgjKlGAwlo Lithium-sulfur battery is the perfect solution when some critical challenges are solved: 1. The shuttle effect. Pure losses in materials. 2. Volume expansion. Significant increase in volume which can damage the battery. 3.. Normally low ability to be recharged many times. 4. Lithium metal instability.
