IMPRES Batteries: What are they and where to buy them

What is an IMPRES battery?

IMPRES is a Motorola battery technology that automates battery maintenance. As well as being rechargeable, these batteries are automatically reconditioned when placed on an IMPRES charger. The battery and charger communicate with each other to improve overall battery lifetime and the amount of use you get from a battery. Indicator lights on the charger, together with the legend printed on it, tell you when a battery is charging, almost finished, reconditioning, finished, or has gone bad.
