Battery capacity is crucial, especially for those with implanted medical devices, such as pacemakers or monitors (I personally have a monitor, not a pacemaker). Currently, my device has a lifespan of about 3 years. Every additional month I can get from it is significant because it delays the need for another surgery. So, if the next version of my device lasts, say, 3.3 years, I would be thrilled-that’s three more months of avoiding another procedure.
Itzhak Bentov (inventor of the first steerable heart catheter) always said, "I am speaking from my present level of ignorance." And that is because, he explained, that for every new answer you get (if you're doing it right), a dozen new questions appear. Dr. Takeuchi explains this quite well!
Chip and computational industries would be interested in using this when flexed compression points that uses the heat generation of the high performance parts causes mechanical compression of the heatsink integration through the design that does have a heat up phase that can be used to get closer to ideal operation temps between 70°C and 85°C (158°F and 185°F) yet once above 120°F get dropped back down to 41°F minus loss so maybe closer to 70°F. Most high preformance parts usually gets retired for the general public in 10 years which is about the theorized longevity of the nitinol alloy if compressed not tensioned.
2 things about the battery argument. Weight might not be a big deal to most, but there are neiche customers who would pay out the nose to shave an ounce off their load (climbers and first responders). Second, my phone is coming up on the end of its life and I can tell cause where I once had 30-40% at the end of the day I'm down to the mid 20's. Yes I charge every night but this tech would let my phone battety last 3-4 years instead of 1-2.
Comparing COP over an undefined temperature step isn't very illuminating. Please ask: how close to isentopic is this? Can it work fast and still get close to isentropic? Is there a maximum temperature step this can work for? Is there a minimum step? How much heat can it move per cycle per mass of material? What are the limits on making lots of this material?
How much stress does the transition require? Could a machine like a cartwheel work? (Elastocaloric spokes in compression, large radial load between the hub and rim, heat exchange fluid pushed axially through the spokes in different regions of the wheel.)

Things like that are ideal for the diamond decade+ radioactive-generators. Tiny power, huge duration.

And now I need to know what Sean said before WOW at the 5:09 video cut

Is Graphene Batteries better than Lithium in relation to fire hazard?
Solid compression sounds hard

Soldiers also need to shave weight.
Batteries take up a lot more load capacity for power hungry electronics.

Sean . You are the bearded Matt Farrel.
But I want a banana with AI AND Graphene!
I want to apologize to everybody for being first. 😞
Now go to your room and think about what you've done! (while binging youtube 🤪)
Dr. Takeuchi said everything and nothing at same time and did not show at least a picture of what he is researching. Great interview... (No😠👎)
