Nano, Nano

Nanotechnology...one of my favorite subjects! Altair Nanotechnologies of Reno, has come up with a new lithium based battery that uses nanocrystals to coat the battery anode. This gives it a much larger surface and allows for increased power as well as faster recharging. In fact, Toshiba, using similar technology, has a battery that can recharge to 80% of capacity in 1 minute!
