Unlike conventional batteries, supercapacitors have an exceptionally long lifespan, lasting hundreds of thousands of charge-discharge cycles, whereas lithium batteries typically last only five years or less.

So, what’s the conversation rate between charge-discharge cycles and years?

arXiv is standard in cs. We use this on conjunction with peer reviewed venues (also all free and volunteer run) and it’s been working out decently well for us. Other fields need to follow suit.
