Smartphones can be fully charged in five minutes, possibly as early as next year.
Two years ago, they launched a huge "super"fast-
StoreDot charning' technology, an Israeli start-up, said the production will begin in early 2018.
Moreover, their electric car batteries-which are said to be charging in five minutes as well-will continue to be used in the coming years.
StoreDot CEO Doron Mysersdorf said the technology is being piloted by two Asian battery manufacturers and will start mass production in 2018. The Tel Aviv-
The company previously presented a prototype at the Las Vegas Consumer Electronics Show in 2015, explaining that two nanometers of tiny crystals --
Known as a nano-point-the battery capacity can be increased by 10 times.
At one end of the electrode, the crystal acts as a capacitor for storing energy.
At the other end, the Crystal delivers this energy to the lithium of the battery at a faster speed and efficiency than the current battery.
Myersdorf told the BBC that we will charge our smartphones in five minutes.
Just a few days ago, the company showed the radical "super"fast-
It claims that the rechargeable battery can power the electric vehicle in five minutes and provide it with up to 300 miles of electricity.
On CUBE Tech Fair in Berlin, StoreDot presents proof of what it calls a technical concept, a fundamental improvement in the structure of conventional lithium-ion batteries.
But the BBC reported that the demo was over before the battery was fully charged.
FlashBattery combines organic compounds with nanoparticles
Cutting the charging time to a fraction of the material of the current method, the company says it will be available in the next three years.
According to the video of the technology, a car running on the StoreDot module will be equipped with 40 "pou"-each of which contains the FlashBattery technology.
These bags contain nano
A point consisting of a short amino acid chain, called a peptide, arranges the structure of the constituent layer.
Peptides are non-organic molecules that are chemically synthesized.
According to StoreDot, biological origin.
When they are combined together, a charging module is formed.
The video says the FlashBattery technology can provide an unprecedented charging speed.
Within 5 minutes of charging, the car is fully charged and ready to go-after 5 minutes, you can travel an average of 300 miles.
According to StoreDot, the technology avoids the limitations of typical graphite
Based on lithium ion batteries.
The material in the flash battery is not flammable, and the combustion temperature is high, which reduces the resistance of the battery.
This in turn improves its security.
The company said that the technology is currently in the advanced stage of development and can be brought to the market in only three years, completely changing the charging mode of electric vehicles.
Partner company Myersdorf says fast charging is a key missing link needed to make electric cars popular
Founder and CEO of StoreDot.
The battery technology available at present requires a long charging time, which makes the mode of transportation of electric vehicles not enough for the general public.
'We are exploring options with some strategic partners in the automotive sector to help us accelerate production in Asia and achieve mass production as soon as possible, 'he said.
