A study has found that using a different type of tape to hold your
lithium battery in place can improve battery life by 10%.

Like so often you got the things very wrong:

As CBC reports, a research team led by PhD student Anu Adamson found
that the polyethylene terephthalate (PET) tape typically used to hold
lithium-ion battery components together is prone to dissolving. This
happens due to a chemical reaction in the battery and leads to a battery
self-discharging over time.

That means the manufacturers not the users.

Nice discovery.

Probably needs a lot of actual testing in manufacturing, temperature and
other environmentals, etc. and so on, and of course the overall
life-cycle of the battery.

If it holds up it will a nice boost to the industry.

Hopefully they will have seen it. Who doesn't like 10% extra for free?

Don't worry - such things get around quickly. Putting it into
production could take a few years though.

Remember when Apple put in the cheapest battery components possible in the
iPhone according to the analysts?

No?
Look it up.

We covered it in gory detail in the past on this very newsgroup.
*How do you think Apple makes those ungodly profits anyway?*

HINT: Use search keywords of "Apple cheaped out on batteries" + "again."

I'll bet you iKooks don't remember we discussed the analysts claiming that
Apple used the cheapest components possible for the iPhone batteries.

Nope.

Nope.

You support your claim.

Will we see your alleged "facts" without support?

This wasn't about Apple, Arlen...

....so why change the subject?

The OP is not unique to Apple. Put that axe away.

Because *literally* all he does, 24/7, is troll. Like so many others
these days, his entire little world revolves around hate. He's consumed
by hatred.

The truth is a powerful argument, Chris.

My claim is well documented as we discussed it on these very newsgroups.
Your excuse that Samsung forced Apple to make bad choices is bogus.

How did Android as a while force Apple to cheap out on batteries Chris?
Your premise is preposterous.

You don't even realize probably how scared you are of facts about Apple.
You're so afraid of those facts that you fabricate excuses for them.

Like saying Google forced Apple to cheap out on battery components.
That's absurd, Chris.

We covered the fact that the analysts claimed Apple super cheaped out on
battery components - which - you may not remember - but I certainly do.

It's a matter of public record - so if you hate that fact - don't go
blaming Android for Apple putting the cheapest components possible into the
battery technology.

Blame Apple for once.

Your claim that Android made Apple cheap out doesn't have any merit.

It's just the truth, Jolly Roger.
About Apple cheaping out on battery technology, Jolly Roger.

FACT: *Prominent analysts claimed Apple cheaped out on battery components.*

We discussed this at the time with all the gory details, Jolly Roger.
How soon you forget all facts about Apple products, Jolly Roger.

There's are reasons you're ignorant about everything Apple, Jolly Roger.
And your memory lapses are some of them.

Before you dispute this fact, Jolly Roger, look it up.

So you should try it some time.

No one has ever made that excuse and it's an attempt to distract from
the FACT that the article about lithium batteries was a general article
about them.

Your paragraph is laughable.

No one said that, and it's not germane to this thread.

Still not germane.

No one said that, and it's not still a straw man

It's not a truth, and it's irrelevant to this discussion.
