Rechargeable batteries are great but up till now, they have never been powerful enough to match the high performance expectations of consumers.  PowerGenix is looking to change that with their cost effective, safe battery solution perfect for high power motor and portable electronics.  PowerGenix’s Nickel-Zinc (NiZn) battery chemistry is the first chemistry to come to market in more than twenty years.  Compared to traditional AA batteries, NiZn batteries have a number of advantages:

* Superior Performance: More power than standard AA rechargeables (1.6V NiZn vs. 1.2V NiMH), NiZn provides the same power as AA alkaline batteries for longer runtime and quicker electronic recovery time with improved performance in high drain devices like digital cameras and flashlights,
Environmentally friendly: NiZn is expanding the market for rechargeables and helping reduce harmful ewaste,
* Safe: NiZn contains no lead, cadmium, mercury or other toxic heavy metals and is 100% nontoxic and non-combustible.
