MIT researchers have engineered a new rechargeable, membrane-less hydrogen bromine laminar flow battery with high power density. The membrane-less design enables power densities of 0.795? Laminar flow batteries—which rely on diffusion to separate reactants—eliminate the need for an ion-exchange membrane.

that car was missing precisely what the Volt (and any other would-be electric car under consideration today) is missing -- an appropriate battery technology that provides decent power within a decent weight and space constraint at anything approaching a decent price. run the hardware store and buy a new one. Way to go morons.
