These are quite interesting as technology. But I do not understand the talk about rechargeable batteries here. These can not replace them, or even alkalines.
What I collected from wikipedia
CONS:
- Less than ½ of the capacity of alkaline, or NiMH
- Not suitable for high drain applications
- Short life after activated (how long, does anyone know?)
- Known to deform and cause damage to devices
- disposable, 1-time use
- Needs water and 5-10 minutes to activate
- Price
PROS:
- “Infinite” shelf life before activation
- More environmental friendly materials than in alkaline battery
There has also been a thread about these before. Even tho these do not seem very practical, I might get a few just out of the curiosity ![]()
