There are multiple reasons for this, but one of the big reasons is that when you </span><span data-contrast= "none">charge</span><span data-contrast="none"> your phone, a lot of heat is generated. </span><span data-ccp-props= "{"134233117":true,"134233118":true,"201341983":0,"335559740":240}"> </span></p> </div> <div style="font-weight: 400;"> <p><span data-contrast="none">Nick and his team solved this by creating a product that works as follows: When you plug it in, it will charge for some time, but then it will take a break from charging, to allow the battery to cool back down. Then it will resume charging. This cycle of charging can double the length of your battery.</span><span data-ccp-props= "{"134233117":true,"134233118":true,"201341983":0,"335559740":240}"> </span></p> </div> <div style="font-weight: 400;"> <p><span data-contrast="none">We discussed how Nick came up with the idea, how they got funding through a competition, and how they developed and prototyped the product.
