Starting next year (October 26, 2010), laptop battery  CB products who wish to obtain certification, in addition to testing in accordance with UL1642, the need to undertake additional testing to ensure that they meet the requirements of the battery safety standard IEC62133. In particular after the end of the transitional period, from June 27, 2011 onwards, IEC62133 standard will completely replace the UL1642, battery-CB certificate of products made only in line with the requirements of IEC62133.

As we all know, the battery used improperly, can cause accidents such as burns and fires. In recent years, the battery safety incidents are frequently reported, the United States, Japan, Russia and other countries are mandatory for the battery in accordance with specific standards for testing. China is a battery-exporting countries, accounting for more than half of the world production yields. In recent years, Ningbo battery industry developed rapidly, the emergence of hundreds of manufacturing enterprises export a lot of well-known brands, has become a fairly large-scale battery production base in Zhejiang Province, from January to October this year, 235 million batteries have been successfully exports to the United States, the European Union, Japan, Southeast Asia, Taiwan and other countries and regions.

Battery industry is at a crucial stage of structural upgrading, and actively expand the export market is significant. Inspection and quarantine experts pointed out that to obtain batteries CB certificate required by the importing country in the application of other certificates, may waive or reduce the sending sample test, greatly reduce the cycle to enter the market, reduce costs and speed up exports. The IEC62133 standard consists mainly of batteries and battery test project, due to the battery manufacturing and the complexity of testing finished products, the battery manufacturers in the detection of pre-certification should have a thorough understanding of the standard details and in production control, such as batteries C1295 ,  NR239 , PC764 designed consider the resistance continued to charge the ability to avoid detection in the final because they do not meet the IEC62133 standard requirements to discourage exports.

Modern society, environmental pollution, the increasingly serious energy shortage, human urgently need to develop new green energy sources. In addition to solar, wind and hydro energy sources such as more people know, the fact there is a kind of invisible life, free green energy ─ ─ vibrational energy. In recent years, research teams around the world, it has become the focus of attention. The Chinese University professor in the Department of Mechanical and Automation Engineering, Wei-Chuan Liao Xin, aThinkPad T60 battery  successful breakthrough in the scientific community in the collection of vibrational energy bottlenecks, the first to design a new type of high-performance “transducers,” greatly increasing the vibrational energy is converted to the effectiveness of the power may be become the embodiment of self-sufficiency self-sufficiency, zero pollution, and long life battery million times. He therefore gained international authority of Electrical and Electronics Engineers (IEEE) 2009 annual “Best Paper Award (automation)”, or another will bring a new era of green energy.

Wei-Chuan Liao a new introduction that the vibration can be part of environment and energy (Ambientenergy) in a widely exist in different parts of everyday life, such as the people to do sports, vehicles, and even electrical appliances in use there is in the process of vibration, which includes  kinetic energy and potential energy. He said frankly that in the past vibrational energy have been neglected, but with the  the energy crisis and environmental issues looming, coupled with the development of micro-electronic components, the scientific community has begun to focus on energy-related research, but also gradually create a new world.

On the environment, energy, the energy harvesting (EnergyHarvesting) is the most important first step. Wei-Chuan Liao new interpretation, the vibration can be collected using a piezoelectric effect (PiezoelectricEffect) principles, through the unique material, when subject to compression can then be among the mechanical energy is converted to electrical energy. The design of high-performance transducers (EnergyTransducer) have used specially designed artificial piezoelectric ceramic (PiezoelectricCeramics),  KD186 , MM165 , WW116 select the appropriate size and shape for energy harvesting purposes.
