IEEE Begins Revision of Laptop Battery Standard

While we WiFi freaks wait impatiently for the next-generation standard to get its own stamp of approval, the taskforce is now beginning the efforts to update the apparently insufficient “Standard for Rechargeable Batteries for Portable Computing.”

In a presumed attempt to make the next wave of notebook batteries carry less explosive tendencies, the IEEE 1625 standard is being updated “to further safeguard the reliability of laptop batteries.”
