Pilo, the battery that lasts forever, recharges in seconds and costs … – PT Journal

About Pilo, a battery that recharges through movement, instantly, in three seconds. It seems a miracle, but the concept of transformation of kinetic energy into electrical is not new. This stack has another feature: it lasts forever. And yet another that will appeal to the reader. Costs only eight euros the pair
 

A French company launched an innovative cell, called Pilo, whose recharge is done through movement that can transform the kinetic energy into electricity.

 

The stack – which is about to be placed on pre-sale – needs only three seconds to regain maximum load

.
 

Recharging is done through a process that converts the kinetic energy into electricity in a way extremely faster than that which occurs with conventional cell we know today.

 

However, Pilo has other features that differentiate it. Firstly, is eternal and the fact that last pair always threatens to make useless all the batteries that are used today.

 

On the other hand, has a price that represents a tiny fraction of the costs over the life we ​​have to bear with the purchase of batteries. Only $ 10 a pair, which is about four euros per unit (get out the cost of importing the product, which is in pre-sale starting in October).

 

But, this innovation supersonic recharge the battery will be magic? Speaking to Info, Nicolas Toper, CEO and cofounder of Pilo says no.

  “There was no magical idea. I thought about that when I had a problem: I needed to connect my TV, but the batteries do not ‘worked’. Necessity is the mother of invention, “says.
 

The next step is to adapt this battery technologies such as smartphones, which have the great defect the lack of autonomy.

 

“We are confident that we can adapt this technology to smartphones, but a lot of research and development are needed. But, yes, this is the long-term plan, “said Nicolas Toper to that publication.

 

These cells – presented in Paris Founders Event, Innovation event held in France – can be used on all equipment that require commands from television to computer mice, through cameras, among hundreds of other objects everyday.

 

And oddly enough the Pilo still has another big advantage: it is environmentally friendly. The conventional pollution caused by batteries is very large, since these small devices housed heavy metals such as mercury, among others.

  “The Pilo devices are built to be sustainable and environmentally friendly. They will last much longer, are fully recyclable and contain no polluting materials “emphasizes Nicolas Toper.
 

This concept promises to shake the market. And it may be that this ambitious project is applied in mobile phone batteries.
