Does this exist as a consumer product yet?
This is a research paper, so it's gonna be at least a couple of years until ot could be seen in products. However the battery uses hydrogen, it's effectively an alternative to fuel cells, so the use case would be in vehicles rather than yout phone. That being said, hydrogen fuel infrastructure is almost non-existent right now.
The battery uses dark matter, it's effectively an alternative to nuclear fusion, so the use case would be in space stations rather than yout phazer set to stun.
