20Ah for 23 bucks? Seems like it's almost too good to be true. Wouldn't surprise me if it was just half that, would explain the price and weight.

This was openly crowdfunded in Japan. Please explain the lie/scam for us? How does Makuake rip people off?

Is this comment anything more than the normal shit HN negativity?

Nihilism is so cool, thinking is so hard, if I try I might fail.

Sure you might be right. Just want to know where the scam is here?

Did the crowdfunding mention breaking a new barrier in battery technology?

Batteries are made out of components, they have a capacity, volume, weight and price. It doesn't make sense that a cheap battery with low weight has a higher capacity than the existing expensive product.
