Battery Life Extenders

Clean the Sky - Positive Eco Trends & Breakthroughs

The Batteroo Extends Disposable Batteries' Lives Up to Six Times

— February 13, 2018 — Tech
There are a battery of reasons why disposable batteries are in need of a reboot, and consumers can now create a better battery with Batteroo. The deceptively intricate sleeve fits around standard disposable battery sizes and extends their lives by a factor of six, saving the environment from electric waste and helping consumers save money in the process.

Batteroos are thin, low-profile metal sleeves that slip around the outside of batteries. They contain smart circuitry that makes batteries use up every last ounce of their energy. With stock batteries, voltage slowly decreases over time until the battery dies, but when batteries stop working there's usually still a fair amount of remaining energy inside. Batteroo defeats batteries' death wish and keeps them working longer.

Batteroos fit over AA, AAA, C, and D batteries, and at the thickness of a fingernail, Batteroo batteries should fit into virtually any device.
Trend Themes
1. Battery Life Extension - Opportunity for disruptive innovation in creating technologies or products that extend the lifespan of disposable batteries.
2. Energy Efficiency - Opportunity for disruptive innovation in developing energy-efficient circuitry or technologies that optimize battery usage and minimize waste.
3. Sustainable Electronics - Opportunity for disruptive innovation in the design and development of eco-friendly electronics that prioritize battery lifespan and reduce electronic waste.
Industry Implications
1. Consumer Electronics - Opportunity for disruptive innovation in the consumer electronics industry by incorporating battery life-extending technologies into devices to enhance user experience and reduce environmental impact.
2. Energy Storage - Opportunity for disruptive innovation in the energy storage industry by creating solutions that optimize battery performance and extend their lifespan in various applications, such as renewable energy systems.
3. Environmental Solutions - Opportunity for disruptive innovation in the environmental solutions industry by developing technologies or products that address electronic waste and promote sustainable battery usage.
