Default Silver-Zinc batteries

With the ability to hold 40% more than current Lithium batteries. I recently heard that they should be ready by next year with possible laptop sporting the technology this year.

Truth be told I really do not know much about this technology as I recently found out about it but with the current inability of current batteries to sustain enough charge for my current laptop and other devices it appeals to me, but I am sceptical about the cost as it contains silver and its a new technology. But it seems that these actually have other advantages with the fact that they are non toxic and can be recycled without too much difficulty.
