Solid-state power banks are ready to keep you juiced — without burning all your stuff
  • BMX is bringing solid-state tech to battery packs with a 5,000mAh and 10,000mAh solution.
  • Solid-state construction allows these batteries to take serious damage and keep right on running.
  • Magnetic Qi charging also makes them perfect for pairing with a new Pixel 10.

Lithium-ion batteries have been an utter game-changer for mobile devices, making possible everything from our smartphones to practical electric cars. But for all the power they can offer, their construction comes at a perilous disadvantage: It’s far too easy to damage one, and that risks the battery becoming a serious fire hazard.

One of the best solutions we’ve come up with for fixing that problem is replacing the liquid electrolyte that mobilizes the charge in these cells with a mostly solid alternative: so-called solid-state batteries. Not only does that kind of design improve power density (so smaller batteries can hold more charge), but it also wildly improves durability — and resistance to catastrophic failure.
