What is an Li-Ion battery made of?

New Energy Limited
Within a stainless steel or aluminium package, there is a 3 layered coil consisting of the positive electrode, the negative electrode and the insulating material. The positive electrode is usually made of lithium cobalt oxide (or manganese) as its main chemical. The negative electrode is made of speciality carbon. The cell profile can be prismatic or cylindrical. The more compressed the arrangement is, the higher the capacity or energy density.

PartStore.com's FAQ
Li-Ion has quickly become the emerging standard for portable power in consumer devices. Li-Ion batteries produce the same energy as NiMH batteries but weigh approximately 35% less. This is crucial in applications such as camcorders or notebook computers where the battery makes up a significant portion of the device's weight. Another reason Li-Ion batteries have become so popular is that they do not suffer from the memory effect at all.

What is the charging method for Li-ion Battery?

SDI America
Charging is executed with the input current and voltage being controlled by charge control circuit and the cell is charged with constant current up to 4.2V. After it is charged up to 4.2V, charging ends when the current is at C/10 point of constant voltage. Li-ion Cell is a safe cell, however Protection Circuit is needed as a precaution to secure the operation of the cell against a misuse. Protection Circuit prevents cells from over-charge/discharge/current and short circuit

Is your Li-ion battery just as effective as the original Archos battery?

NewMP3Technology: Frequently Asked Questions
It sure is, and even better. It outstands the original Archos battery by 20% (average). All batteries are brand new and have never been used. Please not that our new batteries are not shipped at maximum charge, therefore you should charge the battery to its maximum capacatiy before using it for the first time. For the flat li-ion batteries: Please look over our troubleshooting sheet at http://www.newmp3technology.com/lithionbatteryinstall.

What is Cycle Life for a Li-ion/Polymer battery?

Batteries - Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)
Generally Speaking, Li-ion/Polymer cells will retain 80% of their original capacity after 400 cycles. A cycle is further defined as a full charge (4.2V) followed by a full discharge (2.8V). Cycling or storing the cells are elevated temperatures will reduce the cell capacity and cycle life. conversely, storing cells discharged and at low temperatures will extend the shelf life of these batteries.

What is the life span of a Li-Ion battery?

Inspiron 8200 FAQ
Well maintained batteries should last about 2-3 years or 300-500 charge cycles, if you follow these guidelines: If you mostly keep your laptop at a fixed location where there is A/C power, you can run your system on A/C power only by removing the battery and storing it in a cool place. Avoid purchasing spare Li-ion batteries to store for later use. Observe manufacturing date when purchasing. Do not buy old stock, even if sold at clearance prices.

How should I take care of my NiMH or Li-Ion rechargeable battery?

PLANET BIKE - Bicycle Accessories: faq
Your battery can last for years if you make sure to disconnect it from the light head when not in use and make sure to charge it completely (1) before its first use, (2) after every use, (3) before extended periods of storage, and (4) once a month when not in use. This will ensure that your battery doesn't "starve" and lose its charge past the point of revival.

What is the difference between a NiCad, NiMh, Li-Ion battery?

Radicom - Radio FAQs
Regarding batteries, there are three types of batteries used in portable two-way radios; NiMh, NiCad, and Li-Ion. NiCad batteries are the most common batteries used, NiCad is short for Nickel-Cadmium.

Which is one main big advantage of using a Li-Ion battery?

New Energy Limited
Li-ion batteries have very flat voltage discharge characteristics due to the use of speciality carbon as one of their main constituents. This means that they will perform in a very stable way during use.
Related Questions

If a Li-Ion battery is not used for a long time, does it deteriorate?

New Energy Limited
Yes. A battery can be considered as a living object because its action continually depends on chemical reactions. If not used for a long time, the chemicals in the cell degrade and therefore the battery performance is drastically reduced. Manufacturers use state of the art techniques to hermetically seal the cells, however leakage can also occur over a long period of time.

What battery has the longest life, NiMH or Li-Ion?

How to choose a Cell Phone and Wireless Plan Guide
Lithium-ion (Li-Ion) batteries tend to offer the longest talk times and standby times in a lightweight package-and tend to be the most expensive. Nickel Metal Hydride (NiMH) batteries are the reliable standard that offer average talk times (2 to 5 hours) and standby times (24 to 48 hours).

How do overcharge & over discharge affect the Li-ion/Polymer battery?

Batteries - Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)
Optimum charge and discharge parameters are defined during the design of the Li-Ion/Polymer cell. Overcharge (voltages > 4.2V /cell) and over discharge (voltage < 2.4V / cell) will cause irreversible chemical changes to the cell. These charges will reduce the retained capacity and cycle life of the battery.

ARE Li-ion BATTERIES RECYCLABLE?

The Milwaukee V28 Lithium-Ion Power Tool Line Question and A...
Li-ion batteries are more ecologically friendly than NiCd batteries because they contain no cadmium and do not have to be recycled in many states. Milwaukee recommends that batteries of all types be recycled. End-users and distributors should contact the RBRC (Rechargeable Battery Recycling Corporation) or their local recycling agency for recycling locations in their area.

Will the Li-ion/Polymer battery function properly after it sits unused for a long time?

Batteries - Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)
Yes, the recoverable capacity of cells stored for over one year at room temperature and fully charged is 94%. The retained capacity of these same cells is 87%. This means the self-discharge rate for fully charged cells was approximately 150 mAh per year or 427 uAh per day. The self-discharge rate for cells is non linear, a partially charged cell has a self-discharge rate of about 80 uAh per day.
