By creating instant-use rechargeable batteries, Uniross has cracked one of the final barriers to greater use of rechargeables. Uniross has launched the Hybrio, the first hybrid battery. Hybrio combines a key feature of throw-away batteries (just take them out of the pack and use immediately) with the advantages of rechargeable batteries–use the rechargeable over 500 times. The Hybrio super battery is sold ready for use in a wide range of electrical gizmos from remote controls, toys, radios and alarm clocks to MP3 and CD players and digital cameras.
