Is this the future of airbags? A system without gas cartridge and without Lithium ion battery! This has many advantages. The Scott Patrol E1 is much lighter (1280 grams) than other electrical systems, insensitive to low temperatures and no airline can object to transport. The system works with supercapacitors: two plates on which an electrical voltage is applied. Two AA batteries keep the Scott Patrol E1 on power and can even recharge the system at least 2 times after it has been pulled. Of course you can also charge the airbag via cables.
