TOP OVERALL POWER PRODUCT: Cap-xx HS and HW supercapacitor line

As designers wrestle with the overcharging hazards of lithium-ion batteries as well as the batteries' finite charge/recharge cycle life, supercapacitors—with their virtually unlimited cycle lifetime, and nonexplosive chemistry—are gaining interest in the design community. This supercapacitor is for low-power consumer applications.

For more information on supercapacitors, read "Hybrids mark the end of the stinky city bus" and the Power Source blog.
