[Wealth Daily] Alex Koyfman / Jul 12, 2022 Dear Reader, When you buy a brand-new car, one of the questions you generally don't ask is: "How many miles will this thing go before it dies?" While a perfectly valid question, it's rarely asked or even considered, because the expectation for modern vehicles is that with proper care, they'll last decades if need be, traveling hundreds of thousands of miles before finally clunking to a final stop. In addition, most of us know perfectly well that we won't be around for that last tank-full, that last trip, or that last ignition cycle. Cars rarely die in the hands of their original purchasers, as they're passed off to offspring or sold/traded on the secondary market, to be replaced by yet another new model whose last day is so far beyond the horizon that it's simply not relevant. With the emergence of the electric vehicle, all of that is changing... Or at least it should be. You see, unlike vehicles powered by traditional internal combustion engines, which can and have gone over a million miles with proper care, today's EVs, sexy as some of them are, have a built-in termination date that very little can be done about. An iPhone on Wheels That life expectancy can be measured in charge cycles. You charge your Tesla S, drive it 300–400 miles till it's time to charge again, and there's your cycle. Current lithium-ion battery technology gives modern EV battery packs a life expectancy of around 300 charge cycles. That's 300 x 300–400 miles — largely dependent on driving conditions and driving style. If you're heavy-footed and like to feel that famous acceleration, your range will plummet. If spend a lot of time driving in cold, wet, or snowy weather or live in a hilly or mountainous region, that figure will also be affected. That range of 300–400 miles is a very broad average, but even with that, we can get a fairly reliable life expectancy for your EV: Somewhere around 120,000 miles. After that, the individual cells will begin to fail. Some will start failing before you hit that 120,000 milestone. Some will last longer. It's impossible to predict which will go first and which will last the longest, but with over 6,800 cells in each battery pack, optimal performance will be long gone even before the odometer reaches 120,000.

Biggest Lithium Breakthrough in History Inside one of the world’s most advanced facilities, a small 65-member team has perfected the unthinkable...This genius team of scientists has developed a technology for creating an infinite supply of super-rich lithium right here in America... WITHOUT having to mine a single ounce.That’s right! No mining at all.How is this possible? And how could it make early investors 10 times their money or more?[This developing story continues here.]( Get a New One: The 21st Century Catch-All Solution Well, the simple solution is to get a new battery pack. That can cost you up to $20,000. Most people will inevitably have sold their cars long before that point to trade up to a more current model. The exhausted EV will be refurbished and sold off for a bargain to somebody who never had six figures to drop on a new car. That's the typical Tesla story, and in many ways, it's a microcosm of modern life. Like so many modern products, it comes out of the gates shiny and impressive, full of power and potential and cool features... but it wears out faster than the thing it was built to replace, finally dying after months or even years of declining performance. You don't need to own a Tesla — or an EV of any brand — to know what that's like. Anybody who's owned a cellphone from the early 2000s and then upgraded to an iPhone is already very familiar with the concept of performance decay. With Teslas, as with iPhones, the issue goes back to the lithium-ion battery. Unfortunately, as lithium-powered rechargeable batteries are the current standard, there's simply nothing to be done. That's the truth we've been conditioned to accept. Batteries fail. Enjoy the cool features while they last. Be ready to upgrade when that moment comes. Lithium-Ion: A $250 Billion Industry by 2030... Or Obsolete? But what if that were not the case anymore? What if there were a real method for creating the elusive "million-mile battery"? Meaning you could have an electric vehicle that will last you as long as you want it and still remain perfectly functional to transfer into the secondary market when the desire strikes? That would be nothing short of a game-changing evolution in the EV industry. Well, right now such a technology is in the process of emerging. It's no longer just in the experimental phase or sitting in the mind of some brilliant antisocial engineer. There is a new battery already in production that could increase charge cycle life for EVs to 1,000, while at the same time increasing single-charge range by 50%. New Battery Is Quickly Transforming a $3.3 Trillion Market The "Newton Battery" is ushering in a new era in power storage. Using just gravity, it powers the grid better than any other battery on the market. The Newton Battery is cheaper to produce because it's only made of steel and concrete — and it poses no threat of fire or explosion. In short, it’s THE best solution to the world’s energy storage problem. And it’s a huge opportunity that spells colossal new wealth for early investors. The best part is that the mastermind company behind the Newton Battery just went public... [Be one of the first to see all the details.]( That's an average range of up to 600 miles, with a total life expectancy of around 600,000 miles. No, it's still not the 1.5 million miles that a handful of ICEs have managed to rack up across the whole of automotive history, but it's more than enough to turn an EV into a "forever car" for just about any buyer. Here's the kicker, though... These new batteries, which are currently being built in smaller models for the consumer tech market, have another market-changing advantage: charge speed. Able to take on a full charge up to 70 times (that's no typo) faster than lithium-ion, you will be able to charge your Tesla from empty to 100% in less time than it would take you to fill up your ICE-driven car at the pump. Charges Faster Than You Can Pump Can you imagine that? In less than a minute, you could put another 600 miles of range into your car. Just like that, this new battery will destroy the biggest entry hurdle for prospective EV buyers. This is only the beginning of the advantages that this new technology promises to bring. Other improvements include increased durability, a highly simplified supply chain (which is no small deal today, as you well know), and soon enough, lower cost. The company that's building these batteries is already in talks with major prospective corporate clients about licensing the technology for a wide variety of consumer applications. But here's the thing... It's not about the batteries themselves. It's about the production method of the space-age nanomaterial at the core of the batteries. When you look at this material's physical properties, it's borderline alien. Here's just a taste: It's 200 times stronger than steel yet light as paper. That comes at a price, however. And up until recently, that price was $100,000 per kilogram. Ever since [a small Australian materials company]( figured out a way to make it for less than 1% of that cost, the true potential for next-generation rechargeable batteries has started to become apparent. There's obviously more to the story. Much more. Another taste: This company trades on two North American exchanges and is valued at less than a quarter-billion U.S. dollars. Can you believe that? Less than $250 million for a company that could completely disrupt a multitrillion-dollar/year sector in just a matter of years. [Enter here]( to learn the rest. Fortune favors the bold, [alex koyfman Signature] Alex Koyfman Elon Musk’s Solar Trailer Tesla just unveiled its newest gadget at IdeenExpo: a trailer fitted with solar panels. The trailer includes a Starlink satellite internet terminal and could even use the gathered solar energy to increase the range of EVs. But this is just the beginning of solar’s “moment in the sun”... With the global energy market in complete disarray right now, companies are turning to solar alternatives more than ever. And I know how individual investors like yourself, regardless of net worth, can get in early on some of the most compelling solar projects in the world. In fact, you’ll be investing right alongside some of the richest one-percenters on the planet — locking in the same incredible returns as them too. [The best part is that you can stake as little as $100 to get in on regular returns.]( [Feedback? get in touch](mailto:/newsletter@wealthdaily.com?subject=Wealth%20Daily%20feedback) [Read this email online]( [Manage Newsletters]( [Share on Twitter]( You signed up for our newsletter with the email {EMAIL}.
