On Sept 2008, Toshiba showed off a prototype SCiB battery installed in a Dynabook laptop in Japan and today it seems that the detail spec for a real mobile computer has been come out finally and will be obtainable inside the market soon.

The new upcoming sleek 13″ laptop includes a 2nd SCiB (Super Charged ion Battery) power source that may be charged up to 90% in just 10 minutes. Offered in Core i3, i5, or i7-620 configurations with 4GB of memory, 500GB tough disk or optional 512GB SSD. No further info regarding pricing and availability yet.

SCiB is really a breakthrough rechargeable battery that offers 5 Major Characteristics which includes 1)outstanding safety, 2)superb long cycle life , 3)rapid recharging characteristics & 4)high power output performance, and 5)good cryogenic operation.

The new lithium-ion technology features include a high level of safety, long life of about 5000-600 charge cycles, while there is only 500 cycles for standard lion batteries.(For average users, this means that you can use the battery for about 10 years before it dies.)

What is more, SCiB are also safer and will not explode when crushed, as lithium batteries may. It has a framework that ensures an extremely low incidence of internal short circuits. A high level of safety in preventing thermal runaway is assured regardless if an internal short circuit is forced.

Interestingly, Toshiba’s new battery SCiB works well in temperature extremes, with sufficient discharge at temperature ranges as low as -30°C(minus 22 degrees Fahrenheit). This feature also ensures broad application in cold climates. If this battery lives up to the exciting potential, Toshiba will rapidly end up everybody’s favorite battery of choice.
