Icon11 New phone battery could reach full charge in just ONE MINUTE

How cool is this? Hope it turns out to be all it seems.

It’s a sad indictment of today’s world that most of us are reduced to a state of frenzied isolation when our mobile phones run out of charge.

But that could soon be a thing of the past, as scientists reckon that they have created a new battery capable of fully charging in just ONE MINUTE.

The new aluminium battery, which was created by scientists at Stanford University, is cheaper to produce than the lithium batteries currently found in mobile phones and laptops, and offers ‘unprecedented charging times’.

OK, I'm a bit late to the party...

...but, posting in GT does give a chance for those who don't often or ever go to the Hardware forum a chance to hear about a subject with major implications for the "General" public...

Yes sir, that it does. Although I would like to see people make that extra effort to visit the hardware/software forum occasionally.
