{"product_id":"miracle-auto-battery-frank-earl-9781462005338","title":"Miracle Auto Battery: A Deep-Cycle Battery for the Twenty-First Century","description":"With each passing day, the planet grows closer to \"peak oil,\" the point at which our ability to extract petroleum enters its terminal decline. Equally troubling is that our dependence on foreign oil has left us beholden to many of the nastiest, most despotic nations on earth. Scientists have searched for alternative fuel sources, but even after decades of research, efforts to increase the efficiency and overall capacity of the deep-cycle battery for electric vehicles have been largely unsuccessful. \u003ci\u003eMiracle Auto Battery\u003c\/i\u003e argues that we have simply been searching in the wrong place. Unlike much of the existing research into automotive battery technology that is preoccupied with the chemical structure of the battery, \u003ci\u003eMiracle Auto Battery\u003c\/i\u003e focuses on the mechanical structure of the deep-cycle battery. Author Frank Earl proposes that to unlock the future of battery technology, we may need to first look to the past. In 1859, a French scientist named Gaston Planté combined a chemical and a mechanical solution to create the secondary cell (rechargeable) battery. \u003ci\u003eMiracle Auto Battery\u003c\/i\u003e suggests that by expanding on Planté's mechanical solution and adding an additional terminal to the secondary cell battery, we could simultaneously charge and discharge the battery-similar to a capacitor. The ability to charge the deep-cycle battery at will would revolutionize the electric vehicle and end our dependence on foreign oil forever.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAuthor:\u003c\/b\u003e Frank Earl\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-10:\u003c\/b\u003e 1462005330\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-13:\u003c\/b\u003e 9781462005338\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/b\u003e iUniverse\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eLanguage:\u003c\/b\u003e English\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublished:\u003c\/b\u003e 06\/03\/2011\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePages:\u003c\/b\u003e 92\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eFormat:\u003c\/b\u003e Paperback\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eWeight:\u003c\/b\u003e 0.22lbs\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eSize:\u003c\/b\u003e 8.00h x 5.00w x 0.19d","brand":"Frank Earl","offers":[{"title":"Paperback","offer_id":48659392168191,"sku":"9781462005338","price":9.95,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"url":"https:\/\/www.whiterainbookhouse.com\/products\/miracle-auto-battery-frank-earl-9781462005338","provider":"WR Book House","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
