Battery Life Extender (was check this out)

The problem with these kind of things is that Duracell or one of the other big battery manufacturers will simply buy out the company and it's patents and then shelve the whole idea so it never goes into production as it would cost them too much in lost revenue if it did.

The best solution for consumers however, would be for the battery manufacturers to actually take this on and integrate into the battery design in the first place, which wouldn't be too difficult to do?
