Just been trawling around over tea (OH's out and I get to surf with my turf!!) and discovered this radical new technology which is being developed:-
www.sciencealert.com/this-new-aluminium-battery-can-charge-your-phone-in-60-seconds
Come on folks, let's throw caution to the wind and design 'bluesky' (no idea what that means, but it sounds cool ) some radical new mods to embrace this technology . . .

Interesting if they can sort the voltage issue out. But a promising start. A bendy iStick anyone? No need for the loo seat.

I heard this on the news this morning and meant to do some web searching to find out more so thanks Andy for linking the required page.

Sounds really promising.

I wish I can find something accidentally that's a game changer.

I wonder if I wrap aluminum foil around graphite darts would it have the same results

Add a bit of salt and vinegar stamina and you may be onto something.

thats just crazy 60 seconds to charge my mind is blown away

That'll do me, I am fed up with having to charge my Samsung Galaxy, sometimes twice a day.

This could have massive benefits for everything from Electric vehicles to being able to store solar energy to be used at a later date, oh and Vaping equipment.

I could use that now for my phone it seems to be forever on charge thanks to Samsung and three downloading mysterious so's I don't want but not sure I can delete

I've had one smartphone, gave up on it in the end, not so bloody smart if your going out for 12 hours and need to carry a charging pack to keep it alive, I found a German Alcatel twin sim phone designed for sub continent, limited internet, but charge once a week, does job for me, and it's small and light.
