A few months ago, we first heard the word of Altair Nanotechnologies due to an innovative new design of battery cells that are now calling Nanosafe. They say that the graphite used in standard lithium-ion batteries will be replaced by a nano-structure negative electrode material called nanoparticles of lithium titanium oxide. The result could well be a pioneer. Recently, the company conducted a test in his home Nanosafe batteries and found that after 15,000 (not a typo) deep charge and discharge cycles, the product retained more than 85 percent of its cargo capacity . In theory that would push the life of these batteries beyond 40 years if you recharge every day, however, the company recognizes that the real world wear a battery life of 20 years is more realistic.
Altair also says that even though their test loads and discharges fully involved (100 percent to zero and vice versa), it is said that the loading and unloading part does not appear to affect the capacity of the battery to maintain its position.
