They can buffer the energy and help with a rapid acceleration. Dash cam in a car. They can charge the cap and in the event in a malfunction / event. The camera can continue to record. Solar lamps. Charge during the day. Release energy during the night. They’re poor at long term storage. Great at fast and temp storage.
