Super Lithium Ion Batteries
♤ Most batteries take a long time to charge and don’t last more than a few years
♤ German scientists are engineering a rechargeable Lithium-ion battery with a projected lifespan of 28 years.
♤ This new battery will also be charged in shorter time and even 28 years of use will still retain 85% of its original charge capacity.
A lithium-ion battery in general is a rechargeable battery.These batteries are common in consumer electronics. They are one of the most popular types of rechargeable batteries for portable electronics, with a high energy density, no memory effect, and only a slow loss of charge when not in use.
♤ Researchers across the world are trying to improve the efficiency of these batteries and the current innovation by German scientists is a breakthrough in electronics.
