[QUOTE="CobraBob, post: 16693958, member: 6727"] Looks like with the push to EVs that companies are expanding their research and develop to prepare for a huge expansion of charging technology to meet the expected EV demand. [B]So Ford is working with Purdue University on Patent-pending technology that will allow electric vehicles to completely re-charge their batteries in about the same time it takes to fill a gas tank.[/B] They're working to develop a unique high-power electric car charging cable for use with high-power charging cable. This technology/device would allow a complete vehicle battery recharge in about the same time it takes to fill a vehicle's traditional gas tank. What pretty cool (pun intended) is that the cable's liquid cooling system can phase the liquid into vapor which helps to dissipate heat, thus allowing for much faster charging than what the present technology offers.
