Added 1 new A* page:Nanoball batteries "are an experimental type of battery with either the cathode or anode made of nanosized balls that can be composed of various materials such as carbon and lithium iron phosphate"; this gives them a higher surface area, allowing them to charge/discharge at 100 times the speed of a conventional battery. They're still in the experimental phase, and as of the last big update in 2009 they had some problems, such as requiring too much energy to operate, and not being able to store energy for a prolonged period of time. So who knows? Maybe they won't work out. Then again, maybe they will!
Remember, the Supermassive Holiday Sale of original A* art ends over the weekend, probably some time Sunday—not before Sunday, at least. So you've still got at least a day to catch the savings on one-of-a-kind ink or watercolor pieces of A* artwork!
Here's an ink sketch I sent to a reader recently as the reward for their support of the comic through my Patreon campaign in October; I'll also show you what the pencils looked like before I went wacky on it with the ink:
And that's what happens! Thanks to all the people supporting me through Patreon, it's a huge help!
