Wolf Harper questioned:

I keep hearing Answerers say that hybrid batteries are not ecological.

Why do you say that material? Can you back it up with real waterproof?

The small lead-acid batteries now used in cars are already 100% ecological (right here in the USA) . They use acid, which is more spiteful than the alkaline electrolytes used in more bestow batteries. They also use lead, which is a very low-cost metal, and yet a $5 core payment is defensible on these. While these new batteries have nickel, lithium and additional proceeds, and as a upshot they will probably have a core quicker to $300.
