Lithium Ion Batteries: What You Need To Know About Li-Ion Technology
The Lithium Ion (LiIon) battery technology has been growing rapidly in the tool industry. The best energy-to-weight ratio for Lithium Ion batteries is 1. They pack the most power in the smallest package. They do not suffer from lazy battery effect and memory effect. This is when a battery cannot accept a maximum amount of charge because it has been used repeatedly without being fully charged (a common symptom for Nickel Cadmium (NiCad), batteries). Li-Ion batteries on the other hand, have no memory and can accept a maximum charge indefinitely. Lithium Ion batteries also have very low rates of charge loss when the battery is disconnected. What's the difference between Lithium Batteries & Lithium Ion Batteries, and how can you tell? The difference lies in the chemistry. A Lithium battery, which is composed of lithium metal compounds, is a disposable power source. Lithium batteries cannot be recharged. Intercalated Lithium Ion batteries ...
