Re: [PSUBS-MAILIST] weird new battery



I saw a thing on TV yesterday about a new battery technology that was interesting. Unfortunately I caught it in the middle and didn't get the name of the company.
Anyway, it showed a tiny battery, the size of a postage stamp, that never "loses" power. The speaker said the battery can be charged wirelessly from many different sources, including vibration. The device is already in use in tiny applications like remote sensors. The benefit as explained seemed to be that the battery never wears out and electrical charge is stored without loss for 20 years or more.
Battery technology is really moving fast right now. If I get a name or anything new on this I'll pass it on.
