How could there be a video on lithium and not mention its unique role in modern batteries!!!???
they are typically called lithium ion batteries because the very small lithium ion actually moves.

Exactly. More relevant to experience since more people have experience with lithium batteries than use lithium to treat bipolar illness. Although, the discovery on that front is an interesting story. I was waiting to see a laptop catch fire :)

in response to Phil Karn Show comment
the problem is that a battery is tough to open added with the fact that you have to watch out for the acidity to it might just be to hard

Agreed, lithium-ion batteries are now the most important use of lithium, by far. A video about them would be very helpful.

Great point! But I think that it must be tough to present everything about each element in such a short period of time.
