New York-based SiGNa Chemistry is developing rechargeable cartridges that could provide an alternative wireless charging strategy for mobile electronics.

The cartridge, called mobile-H2, contains a substance called sodium silicide that produces hydrogen when it comes in contact with water. In theory, the technology could be used with anything from a smart phone to a global positioning satellite device to an MP3 player.
