SOLAR CHARGER/POWER BANK

The future-

http://www.dailymail.co.uk/sciencetech/article-4219518/New-battery-store-charge-TEN-years.html


it would seem a guy in a American university has just invented a power bank that stores energy up to 10 years by storing energy in organic molecules. The battery also last beyond the 1000 cycle curse of current batteries

interesting read if you like that sort of thing - whether it materializes in the near future is another thing

There are a lot of "If's" "Could's" and "Maybe's" in that report.

Like alternate oil power inventions, the copyright will be purchased and sat on by a big corporation.

Strictly speaking it's not an alternative to Oil, it's just a more efficient way of storing power "IF" they can make it work properly then "Maybe" it'll be finanacially viable and they "COULD" put it into production.

It's still in it's infancy as far as these things go and it's still unstable a bit like hemp being used in super capacitors (which the canadians have been working on) which are actually showing very encouraging results.
