Zinc-Air batteries cannot be recharged. The oxidized zinc metal must be dumped and replaced. I don't know how they would work in a hybrid? http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Zinc_air
Well, Einstein, who did you sleep with to find these trade secrets?
Because Toyota hasn't (1) announced what the tech will be yet, and (2) hasn't even developed the tech yet. So either you are a very sorry corporate spy, or a flimsy psychic.
There are only so many ways the tech can be used. None of them involve any sort of recharging in a way that we would recognize as hybrid tech. Maybe as a new generation fuel cell, but not a gas-electric hybrid like the prius. A educated mind is all I need, psychic powers not necessary.
Remember you were the one talking about your education. I was just making the point that if you are bringing schooling into this you might want to use proper grammar and not be such a sack of shit when someone corrects you?

Give yourself a pat on the back. You deserve it.

" A educated mind is all I need, psychic powers not necessary."
Check your grammar when talking about being educated.

Can anyone actually comment on the science here other than just petty flame wars about spelling?
