In the same way hybrid cars increase efficiency by tapping into dual power options, Infinity X1 technology uses the concept of hybrid power to reduce single-use battery disposal in flashlights, headlamps and other lighting products. Infinity X1 technology has been in development since the company got its start as a market research group in 2005. In the years since, Infinity X1 has honed in on a core technology that handles multiple power sources at once, primarily a rechargeable core and a battery-powered backup.
