Oh, GPS, so without Garmin, can I use the gps to search my way?

New Air-fueled Battery Holds
10-Times the Charge of Current Batteries

Mobile phones, notebook computers and iPods are all devices dependent on rechargeable lithium-ion batteries which are preferred power storage technology, but although recent innovations making them more effective storage capacity continues to remain a huge and the main problem.

Now researchers at the University of St Andrews, with associates at Strathclyde and Newcastle, have developed a new class of air-fueled batteries produces 10 times the amount of electricity of existing lithium-ion batteries.

This step-change in capacity could pave the way for a new generation of electric cars, mobile phones and laptops.

The new design has the potential to improve the performance of portable electronic products and give a major boost to the renewable energy industry. The batteries will enable a constant electrical output from sources such as wind or solar, which stop generating when the weather changes or night falls.

Improved capacity is thanks to the addition of a component that uses oxygen drawn from the air during discharge, replacing one chemical constituent used in rechargeable batteries today. Not having to carry the chemicals around in the battery offers more energy for the same size battery. Reducing the size and weight of batteries with the necessary charge capacity has been a long-running battle for developers of electric cars.
The STAIR (St Andrews Air) cell should be cheaper than today's rechargeables too. The new component is made of porous carbon, which is far less expensive than the lithium cobalt oxide it replaces.

This four-year research project, which reaches its halfway mark in July, builds on the discovery at the university that the carbon component's interaction with air can be repeated, creating a cycle of charge and discharge. Subsequent work has more than tripled the capacity to store charge in the STAIR cell.



Principal investigator on the project, Professor Peter Bruce of the Chemistry Department at the University of St Andrews, says: "Our target is to get a five to ten fold increase in storage capacity, which is beyond the horizon of current lithium batteries. Our results so far are very encouraging and have far exceeded our expectations."

"The key is to use oxygen in the air as a re-agent, rather than carry the necessary chemicals around inside the battery," says Bruce.

The oxygen, which will be drawn in through a surface of the battery exposed to air, reacts within the pores of the carbon to discharge the battery. "Not only is this part of the process free, the carbon component is much cheaper than current technology," says Bruce. He estimates that it will be at least five years    before the STAIR cell is commercially available.


The project is focused on understanding more about how the chemical reaction of the battery works and investigating how to improve it. The research team is also working towards making a STAIR cell prototype suited, in the first instance, for small applications, such as mobile phones or MP3 players.

Truly its quite complicated if u want to change the casing though..
As I've tried once..

Mine got a dozen of scratches.. gotta get a new casing + screen protector then..

Finally..................

[attachmentid=980860]
All brand new

[attachmentid=980859]
all sealed

all battery will be shipped out on Monday,all of buyers will receive on Tuesday FOR SURE.

Woo hoo 

Can't wait for it to arrive. Thank you.

Next time, I suggest you charge a bit for your own lah. Time, petrol, etc. to follow up. I'm sure the rest won't mind for the effort you took.

can change new housing? where should i get one authentic....

you will need to install the python script and the main core..google it

anyway, menu transition is possible now with pyTransition, but the thing is, the effect is still rather crappy, and originally it's possible for FP2 users to change different animations, but the FP1 port cannot work

hi garmin must install in the micro sd card 1st? kenot install directly through phone? emm i doesn't have memory card reader

Who said cant o, I always do that with my friend....

asphalt 4 can...the third one cannot

just wanna ask a question... i'm now on version V3.1 is it possible to downgrade to V3.0? possible to do that?

Hey how?? choose at where??? i cant find it budy!!

Its v31.. Er, unfortunately can't. But last time I am not sure whether I got see it somewhere lese than u can downgrade. I donou how la.
Multiplayer lo. Easy

wei, why my bro de Alphat 4 got no multiplayer option de?? my n82 de got...his n78 de no...i think i have to reinstall the game for him...

Think so, maybe different version. Must sis version I think

hey, any other games that can connect with frens via bluetooh???

Got de, but very sucks la the graphic, Global Race lo, another okok graphic that can multiplayer.

But still finding multiplayergame with more than 2 players de.

Hope Worms will have multiplayers
