WMG Future Batteries | Fully Charged

[@dansanger5340]

Amazing presenter! She actually understands what's going on, asks the right questions, and in real time can translate what the scientists and researchers are saying into language that everyone can understand.

[@totherik91]

You mean like... "the thing that looks like an oven" ? :D

[@dannytourigny9403]

She is very charismatic as well.

[@alanreid4448]

Good episode. Very informative. Good questions asked by Helen. Thanks

[@ignasb]

The questions were not good. They were great! We want to see more content like this!

[@DavidOfWhitehills]

Yes, we learned the positives and negatives of each battery shape.... Sorry.

[@glorious_help]

Alan Reid GOOD QUESTIONS YET NO BASICS REGARDING THESE POUCH BATTERIES, ENERGY DENSITY, WEIGHT DENSITY ETC

[@gammaraygem]

informative ??? really ?? this is the Shell-BP- fossil fuel disaster all over again. here is some info they wont give you: they pump water into the ground to extract the lithium. on average, 1 gram of lithium in 1 liter of water. One electric car battery needs 15 kilo of lithium. So one EV battery uses 15 million liters of water, and that is just for the lithium. Big mining companies bribe, bully and bulldozer their way in, and our planet and local populations get fucked in the ass. fully charged should do a show on this topic. Start with Portugal where this disaster is about to take place. (5th largest lithium reserve on the planet)

[@martinwray7001]

A very good video. This is what BBC tomorrow's world should be like today if it had survived.... Which it really should've done. Well done fully charged.

[@pdsnpsnldlqnop3330]

Oh dear! Tomorrow's World was never this good. It had too many people making the programme and the goodies were more PR pieces than investigative journalism. Can you think of one thing on Tomorrow's World that you can remember now? Blue Peter was far more memorable, even EastEnders but not Tomorrow's World. I think FC is done with true passion, the presenters are not mere hired hands.

[@martinwray7001]

@@pdsnpsnldlqnop3330 I wouldn't say TW was perfect by any means but at least it was a proper science show. The fact that there's nothing like it on primetime TV anymore is a travesty.

[@brucekennedy5274]

I’ll second that Martin. This show ignites the wonder of science I got from TW when I was young. I’m so happy Fully Charged exists.

[@pdsnpsnldlqnop3330]

@@martinwray7001 Nobody watches TV any more. It is on in the background but people don't engage with it like they used to. There was a time when everyone shared a conversation about what they saw on 'Life on Earth' the night before or even developments in 'Dallas'. I don't think we will be going back to the days of four channels, with three of them having something good to offer. The gig is up and I prefer being able to indulge in things like FC online with a decent comments thread. The TV was oft shouted at but it never heard you and 'Points of View' was somewhat filtered. TV budgets were big - there is no 'Life on Earth' grade show on KZbin so yes it is a travesty in a way.

[@MRTOWELRACK]

BBC's Click is the closest show to Tomorrow's World.

[@jackpippenstock1104]

Dr. Helen Czerski is an excellent presenter who is a real find and a true asset to the Fullychargedshow family. She is clear, precise and brilliant. Robert, once more, you have outdone yourself. The channel keeps growing and becoming better as time goes by. The production values of each episode rival anything on commercial TV. Keep up the fantastic job. Thank you for producing such wonderful material.

[@JohnCline]

Fascinating! This episode was loaded with information. Dr. Czerski is an excellent presenter and asked highly intelligent and relevant questions. Kudos all around.

[@HermanWillems]

Quality of this episode is extremely high. 1. Good editor, 2. Great presenter, 3 great subject. It's like... you can't complain. Perfect 10/10

[@somewhat7]

Dr Loveridge communicated her information in a way that was understandable and interesting to a layman like myself. Great Video!

[@BrianHeimbuecher]

... and apparently, she's got quite the 'on-site' fan club! Did you notice how many people popped in while they were taping? And I don't mean the co-worker who just did her stuff & split... that's all in a workday. One guy, in particular, kept sticking his head in. It makes me wonder if the only way to get to the bathroom was through her workspace! :-)

[@elektrotehnik94]

Helen is absolutely great at asking the right question, it shows she knows her stuff. You're doing great. Remember: the more you relax, the more you have fun, the more we have fun watching it :D it's the golden rule of presenting. Keep calm and be the quirky you, it works :D

[@GilesWendes]

This channel just gets better. Love Helen!

[@MrGrannyStylez]

Will she be a regular host?

[@showmequick2245]

Giles Wendes that’s because she seems passionate about what she does. Well done

[@MikinessAnalog]

It is difficult to concentrate on the topic because I am jealous of her look / style. She seems gorgeous wearing anything.

[@DarcersTech]

Very interesting. Would love to see a dedicated episode to how battery recycling works.

[@earlpottinger671]

Why now? The demand for the batteries for secondary uses means there will be no stock available to run a recycling center for the next ten to twenty years. If you don't include the LEAF, car batteries last fifteen to twenty years before they show enough loss to make it even looking like them may be recycled. And at that point, there are plenty of buyers to create stationary storage systems.

[@That1ufo]

You can buy a 1000 battery cells on ebay from laptops and 40% will be dead beyond recovery, even when cells broken down from car batteries are tested the is likely to be dead cells in a pack that need recycling.

[@DarcersTech]

@@earlpottinger671 Because I would like to think long-term. Not start worrying about the problem a second before it happens.

[@banny123456]

The recycled battery is 5 times more expensive then the new one, that means nobody really cares much about recycling, for now.

[@elektrotehnik94]

Please, do that. I don't have a clue, but I should.

[@elovaughnelwell8980]

Awesome, Helen's a great addition to the team. Well done.

[@TiswasTerry]

Dr Helen Czerski & Fullycharged, keep up the good work. Loved this video, taught me a lot

[@scpPython]

(Prof) Helen is a great addition to the Fully Charged team! Let her travel the world and show us all the latest developments from the top laboratories and universities!!

[@fullychargedshow]

If and when we get the budget to pay for that, we'll be right on it. Fingers crossed we can wangle it.

[@cormachondros]

Great addition to the fully charged team! I'm glad you guys make such an effort to explain things in a way that is both informative and clear as possible!

[@OwenzDaddy]

I.E,. "so even Paul can get (most of) it" Just wondering aloud why there isn't an 18650 or 21700-sized cell that is square-shaped, sort of like the prismatic cell.

[@andrewzamorski4950]

I think the reason is that one of the main advantages of prismatics is that they can be built with a lot of surface area giving a potential cooling advantage. If they are in a cube or a deep rectangle you would need to cool on more than one side making the pack more complicated to build and therefore more expensive. Also a cuboid is structurally less strong than a cylinder so either more packaging of the cell or pack would be needed when compared to using a cylinder to maintain structural integrity and safety. @@OwenzDaddy

[@OwenzDaddy]

@@andrewzamorski4950 That has to be it. Thanks!

[@hiddengrousefarm]

Great episode. You have really proven that the big networks are not needed for a great show. Dr. Helen did an awesome job with the tech details. More episodes with Dr. Helen please. Maybe do a few longer episodes with a really deep dive into certain areas like what computerphile does.

[@autoazure]

Simply a breath of fresh air to watch informational programs without ads and the dumbing down of mainstream!

[@dewiz9596]

It’s amazing. . . “You think you know about this stuff, but there is always something new to be learned “. Thanks for a great, informative episode

[@benjaminfeddersen7937]

Helen is really good. Very polished but also very authentic, knowledgeable and naturally curious. Looking forward to her future work.

[@timaustin2000]

Dr Czerski is a great addition to the team! More from her, please 😊

[@c7261]

I love Dr Czerski's enthusiasm - her passion for the science is infectious. She explains the key points well to a laymen such as myself. I really hope she features in more videos to help me understand these technologies.

[@russvhill2]

Another great contribution from Helen, and a superb production by the team. Helen (and Maggie) and the two boys make up a winning team which I'm proud to contribute to monthly. I've already paid for my Silverstone hotel room in June, just waiting now to pay for the entry tickets.

[@sickbailey21]

has she done uploads on this channel before? Are they in a similar style to this one?

[@funny-video-YouTube-channel]

Thx. Dr Helen Czerski for making a wonderful science documentary. The quality of production on this channel is rising up. Good Day Everyone !

[@brucekennedy5274]

Excellent excellent excellent! Helen is fantastic. Fully Charged never ceases to impress. Bravo.

[@BrandonThomasRansom]

Doctor Czerski is a great addition to the team. It's very apparent that she is putting her interviewees at ease, and that results in a great video for all of us. Also, I think the editing of this video is one of the best I've seen in this channel. Keep up the great work!

[@aleksanderkac1494]

Sweet Mother of God. This show is getting positively "cinematic" - for the lack of a better word -. I still remember the slightly awkward camera work in the beginning of this channel ... this shows work presumes a much larger budget than it probably has.

[@ignasb]

not only the production quality is outstanding, but the content as well! What a great new presenter!

[@aleksanderkac1494]

@@ignasb , the content was always more or less to my fancy. the content is why I started watching, but now each episode indulges me on so many levels. oh, what the heck, gonna watch it one more time.

[@ianturner3351]

Yeah loved the directing and camera work. Bobby let’s get some credits and thanks to the wider team - how about an episode on the production team?

[@DOSputin]

What a great episode, everything well explained and Dr Helen is a fantastic addition to the Fully Charged team.

[@andrewsteinhaus8267]

Dr. Czerski is such a great presenter. Her passion for science comes through and makes it so interesting. Great job!

[@AthanImmortal]

She's fantastic, I hope she's a permanent addition to the presenting crew, and if not, I hope she's a regular guest.

[@BarryFence]

Intelligent, knowledgeable, well-spoken people being interviewed and not being interrupted by an interviewer with an agenda. I don't care what the subject is, I could listen to them all day. Love the format of this show. I need to know what the workout routine is of Dr Czerski, too. She's looking very fit.

[@JohnReiher]

Thank you. This is the first time I've seen anyone explain how and why lithium batteries degrade and lose performance, and the trade offs of different battery chemistries! Dr. Czerski thank you and well done!

[@cameronlapworth2284]

Wonderful job Helen, very good mix of explaining what needed explaining without talking down to the audience. Well done.

[@cliveawilson]

Great programme. I love Helen's interview style. Fits well with the Fully Charged team.

[@mansoornodjoumi5979]

Dr. Hellen, I learned more about the workings of battery cells, the present and what can be expected in the future through your presentation, than I have come across in the past, thank you. I look forward to seeing more of your presentation soon.

[@loro.h9612]

Wow! This is top notch quality about a very interesting topic. Thanks to the whole team and welcome Helen :)

[@TomCameron]

This has absolutely been one of the best videos about cell production, challenges, and implementations I have seen. Great job Dr. Hellen, great job Dr. Melanie, and to everybody else at WMG. Dr. Melanie's explanation of SEI was fantastic, and it's something I've seen explained poorly at least a thousand times.

[@Durianpieenthusiast]

Extremely high quality content. More of this please. Good job to the whole team!
