There are a few different ways to measure electrical energy. We can talk about voltage, which is a measure of electric potential. You’ve probably noticed that your DeWalt tools and batteries operate with a certain number of volts. Most have a specific voltage, while others can flex between multiple voltages. We can also talk about amp-hour (Ah), which is a measure of a battery’s charge capacity and how many amps it can deliver over time. For instance, if a battery has a charge capaci...

The Honor 500 launched back in November, but Honor is already allegedly working on its successor. Now some details about the Honor 600 got outed in China. The phone will allegedly have a 6.57-inch screen. That would be marginally bigger than the Honor 500’s 6.55″ panel. Perhaps more importantly, the Honor 600 is now being tested with a 9,000 mAh battery.
