Most automotive batteries weigh around 40 pounds or more, Ohm battery is just 6 pounds.
Its lifespan at about 7 years is about twice that of a lead-acid battery (3-4 years).
Ohm’s built-in circuitry monitors the supercapacitor’s potential output; if it’s ever about to reach the point that it’ll no longer be able to start your car, it’ll just turn itself off. Your lights will fade out and the radio will go quiet — but once you turn the key, everything will spring right back to life, no jump start required.
Cost is about $200 compares with $100-150 for regular battery.
