Ultracapacitor Batteries

Ultracapacitors – sometimes also called supercapacitors – have a much longer life than standard batteries and can work for more than a million charge and discharge cycles. Ultracapacitors store energy in an electric field versus a chemical reaction like “normal” batteries, which enables much faster charging and discharging. They are significantly lighter in weight and usually don’t contain harmful chemicals or toxic metals. In addition, ultracapacitors have very little internal resistance which allows them to work at close to 100% efficiency.
