U.S. Military Defense Fails Without Lithium?

China's Monopoly Over the "New Oil" Has Triggered a Battery-Powered Fuel War...

Lithium Batteries – Crucial to Our Military Strength (Offers Rare Opportunities) Lithium-ion batteries are crucial to the U.S. defense sector because of their light weight, high efficiency, and long life. They're found in nearly every defense weapon system, and used in military vehicles, boats, submarines, and aircraft. Soldiers on patrol can carry 15-25 pounds of lithium batteries to power night vision goggles, weapon optics, phones, and GPS systems. The govt. has warned of the need to develop more domestic sources of lithium, rather than relying on adversaries such as China for a dependable supply. And the U.S. mining industry is finally stepping up. See why domestic lithium could aid our military readiness – and how to benefit.
