it's just that the electrolyte is a solid layer instead of a liquid solvent. They are much denser so the battery can be significantly smaller... and they don't catch on fire quite as easily (I guess that's a plus:) ) cause they don't use a volatile liquid.

Opps I probably mixed up which is liquid/solid, sorry. But yes one of them liquid based and one is solid. Anyway I am very pleased with SE batt performance. |

Do the math. It will not be dead in 5 years, since the 20% are relative. After one year, it has 80% left, yes. But after another year, it doesn't have 60% left, it has just lost 20% of the left capacity, so it has 64% left. A small difference there, but after five years, it actually still has about 33% left (0.8^5). Even after ten years, it still has 11% left. (OK, that's not much of a battery, but it works for a while anyway.)
