Stanford researchers have found that EV battery makers have been making a fundamental mistake at the outset.

The team took aim at the common wisdom for battery manufacturing, which says that factories should hold a newly made lithium-ion battery for an initial charge lasting 10 hours at low current before setting it loose.

The purpose is - or was - to reduce the loss of lithium up front, thereby increasing the lifespan of the battery.

Not so, the researchers discovered. They flipped the script and purposefully charged the batteries on a high current for just 20 minutes .

They lost quite a bit of lithium but gained an average improvement of 50 percent in EV battery lifespan.
