Jon R is back with an all new show where he rants and raves on various topics in and out of the tech world. On this week's episode, Jon rants about battery technology. He recalls using his GameBoy as a child and wishing the batteries would last longer. Whenever he'd get to a good part, the game would shut down. Fast forward several years and the battery technology has remained relatively the same. Jon believes poor battery technology is holding back consumer electronics. For example, it has taken years for laptop batteries to improve from 3 hours to 6 hours. On the other hand, mobile processors have gone from single-core to octa-core in less same time. Why isn't battery technology improving faster? All this and more in this episode of Rants! tchno.be/17m9CHV
