ZPower to Feature the Smallest, Highest Energy, Rechargeable Microbattery at International Battery Seminar
CAMARILLO, Calif., March 19, 2019 /PRNewswire-PRWeb/ -- ZPower, the leading manufacturer of rechargeable silver-zinc microbatteries, announced today its participation at the International Battery Seminar March 25-28, 2019. In addition to exhibiting (booth #122), Tim Powers, Director of Applications Engineering at ZPower, will be presenting on the development of rechargeable alkaline silver-zinc microbatteries for medical and consumer devices.
ZPower is at the forefront of revolutionizing the battery industry with its advanced silver-zinc rechargeable microbattery technology. For the past three decades, lithium-ion batteries have been an integral part of consumer electronics, medical devices, and other applications. But increasingly, Li-ion is unable to keep pace with product developers who require more energy in smaller packages. ZPower silver-zinc microbatteries offer a better alternative to Li-ion, storing greater energy density than equivalently sized rechargeable lithium-ion batteries and alleviating traditional safety issues and transportation and regulatory challenges.
"There's historically been a common perception that you must trade off size or safety for energy density. We're proving that wrong with our microbatteries. Pairing the unique advantages of silver-zinc with our patented charging algorithms, we're enabling device designers to push the boundaries of size and energy demands, while also making it easier to get their products to market--and ultimately, safer for the consumer." said Anson Martin, Chief Commercial Officer of ZPower.
Using a water-based chemistry, ZPower batteries are stable and non-flammable, making them safer for body-worn medical devices and other wearable applications. Lithium-ion batteries require extra components to monitor voltage, current and temperature in an effort to protect users from the dangers of their technology. Silver-zinc is also a dry battery, exempt from UN38.3 restrictions and most other lithium-ion international shipping regulations.
"We're looking forward to sharing the advancements we've made in rechargeable microbattery technology. Our silver-zinc batteries have opened up a world of new possibilities for consumer and medical device manufacturers and we're excited to be a part of the next wave of innovation," said Tim Powers.
With the smallest, most energy-dense, safe microbatteries on the market, ZPower is uniquely positioned to meet the needs of increasing consumer demands for dramatically miniaturized devices.
