How to Manufacture a Lithium Ion Battery

December 17, 2012 in Knowledges by admin

Lithium-ion batteries are common in consumer electronics, especially for applications that require a portable power source. They have an excellent energy-to-weight ratio and lose their charge slowly over time. Lithium-ion batteries can be recharged by moving the lithium ions from the negative electrode (cathode) to the positive electrode (anode). Lithium-ion batteries come in a variety [...]

Tips: How to Improve the Battery Fuel Gauge

November 26, 2012 in Knowledges by admin

Most cottages in the countryside are heated by burning wood in a simple stone hearth. The desired heat is controlled by the feeding of wood. Today computers manage heating systems in large buildings and the boiler has become almost secondary. A similar trend is evolving with batteries. Increasingly, batteries are being controlled by a device [...]

Advantages and Limitations of Lithium Polymer Battery

June 1, 2012 in Knowledges by admin

Lithium polymer battery has not caught on as quickly as some analysts had expected. Its superiority to other systems and low manufacturing costs has not been realized. No improvements in capacity gains are achieved – in fact, the capacity is slightly less than that of the standard lithium-ion battery. Lithium-ion-polymer finds its market niche in [...]
