Re: Silicon Batteries

Silicon-based technology would greatly expand the capacity of the batteries used in mobile phones, electric vehicles and other applications. - See more at: http://www.cam.ac.uk/research/news/l....bhLtfqM1.dpuf
Sounds good

Re: Silicon Batteries

As soon as they improve batteries for electric cars just watch the use of them take off.

Re: Silicon Batteries

Any advance in battery improvement is welcomed.
I’ve always thought there has to be a better system for powering low voltage devices, I’m sure the human body has plenty of extra power for this, and the fact that it doesn’t run out until you are dead means you can have all the small dosages of power you’ll need for life, but why should they concentrate on that kind of power when there’s no money in it for them, it can be done alright but we will never see it in operation.
