The current Lithium-Ion technology is often not enough for users especially those with power hungry devices. Stanford researchers report that heavy boost to the technology is just behind the corner. According to them we should be enjoying 10x more juice than normal.

The new invention is getting a patent application filed and the researchers are negotiating a deal with battery manufacturers. The secret behind this great invention is called silicon nano-wires - a new way of storing the lithium in the battery.

The lithium is stored in a mesh of tiny nanowires and it will grow four times their actual size as they store the lithium.
