Apple Reinvents Laptop Batteries with Lithium Polymers and Adaptive Charging

In addition to being behind the best online web browser today, namely, Safari, Apple is well known for many other ground breaking achievements and innovate products. The latest step on the company’s path of innovation and perfection is apparent in the recently developed new laptop batteries that eliminate all the shortcomings and performance limits of legacy laptop battery packs. The most irritating and unproductive thing that a laptop user generally faces is the low battery run-time and short battery life found in nearly all laptop models. This is because the legacy laptop batteries were not made using that breakthrough technology that Apple has invented now.

The company’s new non-removable laptop battery pack is a totally unbelievable product that leaves everyone’s mouth wide open. It can supply 8 hours of power to the laptop continuously on a single charge. Even if you use laptop sporting up to 17 inches of display along with some power hungry goodies such as Wi-Fi and Bluetooth are turned on the battery run time of remains unaffected. Moreover, you can recharge the batteries 1000 times, i.e. 3 times of the current battery recharge standard and 40 percent more capacity per recharge. The company has installed the new battery pack in the Apple MacBook Pro 17. It has made the battery using the lithium polymers and initiated a new technology called ‘Adaptive Charging’.

Adaptive Charging intellectually analyses the amount of charge actually required by each individual cell of the battery and recharges it accordingly. This is in contrast to the constant rate charging method (used by the other standard batteries) that charges the whole battery at a constant rate irrespective of each cell’s individual requirements and ultimately leads to the battery’s pre-mature death.
