Batteries are being used at a higher rate around the world to power everything from your remote control to your electric vehicle. But not as much progress has been made in the technology inside those batteries. One San Diego-based tech company, South 8 Technologies is pioneering a new type of "Liquefied Gas Electrolyte" that they say can make rechargeable batteries lighter, higher performing, temperature resilient, and eco-friendly. As technology advances as quickly as it has, so does the need for more reliable and more robust battery storage. “Now that we have this growing revolution, there’s much more of a drive to create batteries that are much more environmentally resilient, much more stable, much larger," South 8's CTO and Co-Founder, Jungwoo Lee told CBS 8. https://www.cbs8.com/article/news/local/san-diego-company-higher-performing-temperature-resilient-eco-friendly-battery/509-95abf786-676e-443a-bf09-a4b8b75afa51
