Lithium-ion batteries may get a boost
It is a fact that while lithium-ion batteries are good, they do lose capacity over time. Well it looks like scientists may have figured out why and by doing that, they may be able to make better batteries.

An energy storage “ghost in the machine” has been identified as the culprit behind capacity loss and under-performance in lithium-ion batteries.

What ever happened to Valence technologies? They even had a plant built for them in Henderson Nevada by General motors. I think they had the best battery’s on the market,they tested battery powered car’s and had a battery pack for laptops.

Figured finding ways to vastly improve what we already have with new technology would prove the advancement we are looking for in electric productions and vehicles of the future.

so that next 2 year battery phone release?
Daise Flowers says
nexus 0 Perhaps devices like smart phones, cameras and clocks with heat, motion and light sensitive generating shells, trickle charging the devices constantly coupled with better power programming management. Devices that may never need to be plugged in their useful life… Imagine such devices…

Daise Flowers I’d like to point out that even if a device such as a smart phone was able to harness 100% of light and heat energy, it wouldn’t be nearly enough to keep it charged, even if it were in idle a majority of the time.
The improved batteries described in the article simply wouldn’t experience the decay in lifespan if it were made perfectly, not an extremely high capacity.
