AI Customer ServiceSpecial materials called supercapacitors could blow this huge battery market wide open, turning one steady drip of battery charging into a showerhead. In newly published research, scientists propose a new model for studying supercapacitors, giving other researchers a better way to study how a different battery paradigm might work.
It depends on the expected lifetime you need. If you are going to have more than tens of thousands of power fail events, then capacitors would assure you of a longer life, useful if it was an unattended situation like a remote island. However a battery would be so much smaller, cheaper and easier to use, that's the way I would go.
As others have said, the fact that the amount of energy being stored in a capacitor is a factor of the voltage squared makes having a bank of capacitors charged up to a high voltage seem appealing, though depending on the voltage level can be difficult to design around.
Where batteries can supply power for relatively long periods, supercapacitors can quickly provide power for short periods. Supercapacitors are also environmentally friendly, not subject to thermal runaway, and can operate reliably for up to 20 years.
Inside these rechargeable batteries, ions are passed from one side to another to spend the charge, then reversed in order to recharge. Special materials called supercapacitors could blow this huge battery market wide open, turning one steady drip of battery charging into a showerhead.
The capacitor charging circuit is simple: a series resistor R1 to limit charge current through D1 into the capacitor bank C2. If the power-up events are rare, the energy loss on R1 is not substantial and doesn't have undue impact on the energy efficiency of the device.
