Sony, one of the world’s top companies in cool gadgets and technology, has announced a new, advanced lithium-ion battery that will last almost 4 times as long as the standard lithium ion battery. This future battery is also said to be able to charge to maximum capacity in just 30 minutes, not to mention that it can be fully recharged over 2,000 times. These batteries use lithium iron phosphate for the outer material, which allows for the enhanced lifespan as well as a faster recharge.

No word yet on pricing details or an exact release date, but it looks to be in the near future. Speculators say that the batteries will start out being used only in portable power tools, and then soon after in regular electronic devices, such as cellphones, cameras, &  flashlights.
