"But lithium batteries can go off in an unpredictable manner in the air, the car or in your pocket. Besides safety, we have achieved major breakthroughs in aluminium battery performance."
And while lithium-ion battery can take hours to charge, the new battery has "unprecedented charging times" of down to one minute.
Unlike other prototypes which die after just 100 charges, the Stanford battery can withstand more than 7,500 cycles without any loss of capacity.
By comparison, a typical lithium-ion battery lasts about 1,000 cycles.
