Their outer skin is made from aluminum-coated polymer and this in turn brings weight advantages. Conversely, high coating thicknesses for the electrodes produce a high energy density. Because the exhaust system transports only water, it can be made of lightweight polymer. The tanks can store around five kilograms (11.0
