>light enough to be lifted by an average person

You just added an unnecessary design constraint.

Most people couldn't carry 14 gallons of gasoline, either, but have no problem getting their tank full.

Describe to me how you think this might work. Swappable batteries that do not need to be loaded by heavy machinery, and also don't need to be lifted by anyone. I'm dying to know your design.

Do you not use machinery to put fuel in your car?

Yes, and that machinery is analogous in use to the fast chargers that currently exist.

I do not swap out the empty fuel tank for a full one. Go ahead, describe the process.
