BBC News - Super-powered battery breakthrough claimed by US team

A new type of battery has been developed which its creators say could revolutionize the way we power consumer electronics and vehicles.

The University of Illinois team says its use of 3D-electrodes allows it to build "microbatteries" that are many times smaller than commercially available options, or the same size and many times more powerful.

It adds they can be recharged 1,000 times faster than competing tech.

Go Illini!
