These batteries can be twisted, bent, and scrunched up multiple times, while retaining the same energy capacity and power output. Perhaps most excitingly, though, the researchers tell me that "all standard electrode materials and packaging technologies are used," meaning this tech could theoretically be commercialized in its current form.
