A new type of home-made storage battery developed under the supervision of
a military representative office of the Armaments Department of the PLA Navy has
been endorsed by experts not long ago and is now at the stage of sample trial
production. It will soon be made available to the troops. According to the
briefing, thanks to the 20-odd technological innovations and technical
improvement, the durability of this new type of storage battery doubles that of
the previous ones and its various technological index have by far outstripped
the rest in China.
