Developed software that speeds up charging and extends battery life

The frustration generated by our battery life is only exceeded by that caused by the waiting times to complete the next upload, and always thinking about the number of cycles remaining before the battery dies.

A company called Qnew, whose headquarters are in Newark (USA) uses technology that constantly checks and adapts energy flow during charging for charge batteries faster and increase their service life.

While other alternatives offer us to solve these problems by manufacturing batteries with new materials, this company has developed a chip and software capable of charging a phone battery in a third of the time. The company also claims that its technology helps lithium-ion batteries to endure many more charge cycles.

Standard charge

Normally, during charging, an adapter forces the lithium ions to move from the battery positive electrode to the negative electrode at a continuous speed until the battery is charged. Over time the battery degrades due to chemical reactions, for example that lithium ions remain bound to each other as a result of pushing them. Speeding up the charging process would only degrade the battery more quickly.

New charging process

When a phone is plugged in equipped with Qnovo technology On an adapter, the software sends a pulse to phone battery. The voltage response the battery returns offers information on the status of the sameto, for example its temperature, and how it has been charged in the past, and allows Qnovo decide how much energy you can safely receive. This means that the battery can be charged as quickly as possible while minimizing degradation.

The company's software constantly repeats this testing process with the battery in order to go adapting the load. It also adapts over time to the properties of a battery.

Availability

Qnovo CEO Nadim Maluf predicts that the company's technology will be available on select smartphones next year. He claims that he is in discussions with some phone manufacturers about the possibility of include software Qnovo on your devices or, for maximum performance, install a chip to manage the loading process.

The chip will be unfeasible for iPhone, but the app promises. When it is on the market we will have to assess its efficiency compared to already established applications.

    If you watch the video you realize that it is a lie. The one on the left charges with a normal charger while the one on the right is with a tablet (more powerful) therefore it charges faster.

      Obviously, it says it as soon as the video begins, what happens is that this soft improves the useful life of the battery allowing fluctuations in the charging input, which is the case that you charge with a larger device, such as the tablet charger .
      Look at the operating mode of the software and you will see the improvements it produces. If it were possible to charge with the iPad charger and accelerate the charge with the chip, the advantage we would have in charging our iPhones would be incredible, but only with the charging manager and the iPad charger I am satisfied.
      A greeting and thanks for comment !!

    Well, I think it is great news, since they will not change the material of the batteries because it is much better for them to explode and thus we buy another terminal, but if this prevents heating it is a good option
