- A new battery, small and thin, weighs almost nothing and can be printed in a process similar to silk-screening shirts.
- The printable battery is expected to cheap and easy to mass produce and could be used in disposable receipts or cards, engineers in Germany announced today.
- “Our goal is to be able to mass produce the batteries at a price of single digit cent range each,” said Andreas Willert, of the Fraunhofer Research Institution for Electronic Nano Systems ENAS, where Reinhard Baumann led the battery’s development.
- The battery weighs less than 1 gram and is less than 1 millimeter thick. It runs at 1.5 volts. Placing several in a row can produce up to 6 volts.
- A standard AAA battery weighs about 11.5 grams and also runs at 1.5 volts.
