New Battery Technology


Engineers at Northwestern University have been using the new lithium-ion technology which allows a user to expand their battery life 10x.


"Dr. Harold Kung of Northwestern University said they are able to make all of this possible because they discovered how to squeeze more ions into the battery and increase their movement speed. With the new technology, a typical mobile phone would charge to 100 percent in only 15 minutes, yet last for an entire week on that single charge" (Tinari).


Kung says that even after 150 charges, meaning being used for one year or more in operation Kung believes the battery is still more effective than a normal lithium-ion batteries nowadays.
