Alkaline Batteries Are Better For Phones
We know the drill, talk by day and charge by night. This is how we use our phones every single day. Although we are used to this ceremony, there is a much better solution to Lithium Ion batteries: Alkaline batteries.
Alakaline batteries have been here for a long time. We buy these on mini stores like 7-Eleven, and just plunk it in our flashlights. Most people in our country don’t know that there are rechargeable Alakaline batteries that can be used as a replacement to our Lithium Ion batteries, used in our beloved phones.
The advantages really overtakes the disadvantages:
It’s Safer than Lithium ion.
We are all very familiar with phones bursting into flames before, and sometimes this still happens on cheap smartphones with other brands especially when it is left charging on outlets. Alkaline batteries also explode, but only when it’s disposed on fire like the AA batteries we are used to. Thus, making alkaline batteries a better choice for smartphones.
It’s Cheaper than Lithium Ion.
We know how much are AA batteries nowadays, and it’s a lot cheaper to buy, and cheaper to make in factories.
Before, my Lithium ion battery got bloated, and had to replace it one time, and I went to the manufacturers service center. It costs about 13 USD for one battery, and my phone is small compared to phones nowadays that can’t be replaced easily. Alkaline batteries cost around 4 USD for four AA.
It’s more convenient.
You Don’t Have Recharge Your Phone Everyday using Alakaline batteries. Alakaline batteries can power up your phone for months before it fully discharges than a Lithium ion ones, before you charge it up again on outlets.
It ain’t perfect!
Right now, the technology behind Alkaline batteries are not fully harnessed, although it’s older than Lithium ion batteries. However, if we have funds to fully unlock it’s capabilities, then we are talking about ‘disruptive’ in our generation, and years to come.
Currently, we are in an energy crisis, and we need electricity for myriads of consumer devices that are essential for our living like laptops, phone, cars, lighting, appliances, etc. Therefore, we need to realize that status quo is not favorable due to the oil crisis we’re experiencing today, and we need renewables like solar and wind energy to restore our climates’ health. Fortunately, we have the means to cultivate the technology that will propel us to the future.
