Silicon-Carbon batteries now mainstreamAnonymousNo.1198
>uses an anode composite of silicon with a carbon matrix >silicon anode alone swelled 300% during charging, cracked itself apart >carbon matrix contain expansion better >Si-C = ~1,000 charge/recharge cycles (potentially higher in the future) >higher energy density, ~300 Wh/KG (potentially higher in the future) >lower heat during charging (potential for faster charging)
>>1200 Modern phones will suck a little less too. I liked them better when you could easily replace the batteries without having to use a heat gun and remove 10 screws.
