a basic car battery(a box of acid with metal plates) has a life expectancy of a couple of years on average.

an eletronic supercapacitor battery has a life expectancy of thirty to fifty years or more.

that would be one reason to do the conversion.

also, they can be charged very very quickly, a cellphone that uses supercaps could charge fully in a minute vs a regular battery that takes thirty minutes to charge.
