Do you have any fucking clue how big a power supply you would need to charge a car battery in 10 minutes! To charge a truck battery in half hour requires a 3MW charger. Not to mention they have to use water cooled charging cables with with existing superchargers.

I can see this being used to get between 25-40% charge and the rest being lithium batteries - in portable electronics. EVs are fucked. They wish they could charge them faster but it would cost too much to build the infrastructure. They can improve the power handling at the charging stations but it’s going to be expensive. They don’t work very well in their current state. And I don’t see it as being possible at home without some huge investment in equipment. Maybe Porsche could sell a charging system that costs tens of thousands.
