Scientists at the Department of Energy's Argonne National Laboratory say they've come up with a way to dramtically boost the power of rechargable lithium-ion batteries, used in laptops, cameras, iPods and more.
Bully for you if you can parse the research, but it seems to involve using manganese to alter the shape and storage of the battery components. Initial experiments yielded charges better than 250 mAh per gram, more than double the capacity of current batteries. No word on how long until commercial development.
