Lithium batteries that charge faster when warm...

Hi.

Is this for all cells currently on market or only for a newly developed chemistry ?  Until now,  the heat while recharging was counterproductive for the cell.  And risky.

Seems theyre claiming they can do it on existing LiOn batteries but I would be cautious with conclusions before extensive tests are made - soounds too good to be true. Heating up gets rid of Li plating I get it but theyre not mentioning if they made any stability tests over time like doing multiple cycles.
