Benefits of Lithium-Ion Battery

Is Lithium-ion battery ideal for your Electronic appliances?

Yes. Lithium-ion battery has higher energy density, low self-discharge and capacity than other rechargeable batteries which makes them ideal. Lithium technologies have become popular and valuable in powering electronic like laptops and cell phones. Lithium ion batteries are among the lightest options for applications where weight is a consideration. Today, lithium-ion is the fastest growing and most promising battery chemistry.

Tell me about the main benefits of Lithium-ion battery?

See, Lithium is the lightest of all metals, and has the greatest electrochemical potential (It is the electromotive force of a cell built of two electrodes) and provides largest energy density for weight.

Because of the inherent instability of lithium metal, especially during charging, research shifted to a non-metallic lithium battery using lithium ions.

Even though it has lower energy density than lithium metal, lithium ion is  safe provided certain precautions are taken while charging and discharging

The energy density of lithium-ion is typically twice that of the standard nickel-cadmium. There is potential for higher energy densities. The load characteristics (Load characteristics are the most direct and critical influential factors that are relatively active, such as the increasing speed of load, load type, static and dynamic characteristics of load, and so on) are reasonably good and behave similarly to nickel-cadmium in terms of discharge. The high cell voltage of 3.6 volts allows battery pack designs with only one cell. Most of today's mobile phones run on a single cell. A nickel-based pack would require three 1.2-volt cells connected in series

Lithium-ion is a low maintenance battery, and there is no memory or scheduled cycling is required to extend battery’s life. Not only that its self-discharge is less than half when compared to Nickel-Cadmium making lithium ion safe for modern fuel gauge applications.

Now let’s take a look at main benefits of Lithium-ion

• High energy density - potential for yet higher capacities.
   
• Does not need prolonged priming when new. One regular charge is all that's needed.
   
• Relatively low self-discharge - self-discharge is less than half that of nickel-based batteries.
   
• Low Maintenance - no periodic discharge is needed; there is no memory.
   
• Specialty cells can provide very high current to applications such as power tools.

 Its limitations are

• Requires protection circuit to maintain voltage and current within safe limits.
   
• Subject to aging, even if not in use - storage in a cool place at 40% charge reduces the aging effect.
   
• Transportation restrictions - shipment of larger quantities may be subject to regulatory control. This restriction does not apply to personal carry-on batteries.
   
• Expensive to manufacture - about 40 percent higher in cost than nickel-cadmium.
   
• Not fully mature - metals and chemicals are changing on a continuing basis.

Here we are constantly improving lithium-ion. New and enhanced chemical combinations are introduced every six months or so. With such rapid progress, it is difficult to assess how well the revised battery will age.
