Abstract :
AER Energy´s rechargeable zinc-air battery technology has the unique set of characteristics to provide long battery run-time for portable electronics. With more energy per pound and high energy content cells, rechargeable zinc-air can provide sufficient energy in a lightweight battery that is practical to build. Improvements made in the past year make AER Energy´s rechargeable zinc-air even more flexible and versatile. Satellite phones and GPS systems are but two of the range of applications for rechargeable zinc-air batteries. Future directions for AER Energy include building smaller cells
