Zinc Air Battery Charger for Palm
Electric Fuel announced yesterday the development of a ZincAir “Instant Power” battery for use with Palm handheld computers. The 3300 mAh battery will allow Palm users to keep working even as their rechargeable battery runs down.
According to Electric Fuel, the battery can be used as a backup power source, as well as a portable charger that can charge the Palm's rechargeable battery several times, or both at the same time.
The battery for Palm computers will be the first application of Electric Fuel's ZincAir line of high-energy primary batteries for electronic devices other than cellphones. The battery is expected to give Palm owners a new range of options for powering their devices.
The ZincAir “Instant Power” battery weighs less than three ounces and is less than one-half inch thick. It will be used as an auxiliary pack, which will be connected to the Palm via its standard connector. The battery will also be designed to power forthcoming energy-hungry Palm accessories, such as wireless modems, via the Palm standard interface.
