One of the cool things about writing for a
green car blog is the chance to talk with company heads about their products. I recently got the chance to speak with Mil Ovan, co-founder of Firefly Energy, which is working on a new and lightweight lead-acid battery. My post over at
AutoblogGreen has details about the new 3D and 3D2 batteries. If the technology ends up being as good as Ovan is suggesting, you tell all your friends you heard it here first.
