Lithium-ion battery-related knowledge:

1, lithium-ion battery
Lithium-ion battery at present by the liquid lithium-ion battery (LIB) and lithium-ion polymer battery (PLB) two categories. Among them, the liquid lithium-ion battery is the Li + embedded compound is positive, the secondary battery anode. LiCoO2 cathode or the use of lithium compounds LiMn2O4, negative use of lithium - carbon intercalation compounds. Lithium-ion batteries due to high voltage, small size, light weight, high energy, no memory effect and pollution-free, self-discharge of small, long cycle life and is ideal for development in the 21st century energy.

2, A Brief History of the development of lithium-ion Dell Inspiron 600m battery , Dell Latitude D500 battery
Lithium batteries and lithium-ion battery development is the success of the 20th century a new type of high-energy batteries. This battery is a lithium metal anode, cathode with MnO2, SOCL2, (CFx) n and so on. 70's into the practical use. Because of its high-energy, battery voltage high operating temperature range, the advantages of long storage life, has been widely used in military and civilian small appliances, such as mobile phones, laptop computers, camcorders, cameras and so on, in part to replace the traditional battery.

3, the prospects for the development of lithium-ion battery
Lithium-ion batteries for its unique performance advantages in portable appliances such as notebook computers, camcorders, mobile communication has been widely used. At present, the development of large-capacity lithium-ion batteries for electric vehicles in the middle of the trial, expected to be 21 electric vehicles, one of the main power supply, and in satellites, aerospace and energy storage applications received.

4, the basic performance of the battery
(1) the battery open circuit voltage
(2) the internal resistance of battery
(3) battery voltage
(4) The charging voltage
Charging voltage is the secondary battery in the charger, the external power added to the battery voltage at both ends.
Exercise the basic method of charging current charging and constant voltage charging. The general use of constant current charge, which is characterized by the charging process when the charge current constant. With the charge, the active substance has been restored, continued to narrow the area of electrode reaction, the electrical polarization gradually increased.
(5) battery capacity
Battery capacity is defined as the amount of battery power was often used C said that the units that used Ah or mAh. Battery capacity is an important indicator of performance. The capacity of the battery capacity is usually divided into theory, the actual capacity and rated capacity.
Battery capacity of the capacity of the decision by the electrodes, if the electrode capacity ranging from the capacity of the battery depends on the capacity of the small electrode, but it will not be a positive and negative electrode capacity.
(6) of the storage performance and battery life
Chemical, one of the main characteristics of the power is used to produce electricity, can store energy when not in use. Performance of the so-called secondary Dell Inspiron 8100 battery , Dell Inspiron 8200 battery ,Dell Latitude C500 battery storage is to maintain the ability to charge.
For the secondary battery, the battery life performance when the quality measure an important parameter. After a secondary battery charge and discharge, called a cycle (or have been in this cycle). Charge and discharge in a certain system, the battery capacity to achieve a specified value before the battery can withstand the number of known as the charge-discharge cycle of the secondary battery. Lithium-ion battery has an excellent storage performance and long cycle life.

Use common sense of Sony laptop battery

Use common sense of Sony laptop battery
Use common sense Sony PCGA-BP2S battery Recently, a lot of friends who are very concerned about their own love machine rechargeable battery. A wide variety of brands on the market model, people really puzzled, we doubt that we can all be summarized on digital cameras are now used in battery performance, how to tap the potential of batteries, the last to talk about how maintenance, so you go out When a pretty good idea of shooting more. In addition: a lot of cameras such as Sony's series, such as mini machine (with a copy of the simple random charger) Sony PCGA-BP2S battery used in a more expensive price of General AA Ni-MH rechargeable battery a large, good quality, the ability range, so that comparison People at ease. The vast majority of digital cameras use rechargeable AA batteries large number of brands on the market, they found that the use of quality there is a big difference.We have today the most popular low-cost rechargeable AA batteries and discussion: digital camera batteries commonly used in lithium-ion battery into, nickel-metal hydride batteries, nickel-chromium batteries, alkaline batteries, and so on, the most popular technology is also the most mature Ni-Sony-VGP-BPS by everyone's favorite.Nickel-metal hydride (NIMH) batteries advantage: their discharge curve is very smooth, power consumption is about to end, before a sudden drop in voltage. Ni-MH is for the positive electrode nickel hydroxide and hydrogen storage alloy for high-energy negative, the positive electrode of Ni-MH battery and nickel-cadmium battery is basically the same, but the negative use of high-energy hydrogen storage alloy materials, making nickel metal hydride batteries have more energy. At the same time, Ni-MH battery and electrochemical properties of nickel-cadmium batteries are also similar, the nickel-metal hydride Sony PCGA-BP2T battery used in the full replacement of nickel cadmium battery, without the need for any reform of the equipment. Batteries and mercury is not very conducive to the protection of the environment, a slight memory effect.The use of nickel-metal hydride battery pay special attention to the following:1, charging the attention of the temperature, this is very critical. Normally, we should be 0 ° C to 40 ° C ambient temperature of the battery under charge. As below 0 ° C under the internal rechargeable battery will not charge the normal, resulting in the resumption of non-performance has continued to drop. In the 40 ° C higher than the charge, will lead to the possibility of leakage. (This is why a small number of friends in the over-charging the battery led to the burning, out of the pale yellow liquid.)2, as far as possible not to start using the Ni-MH battery trickle charge. However, the use of Sony VGP-BPS9 battery can be recharged quickly 0.033CmA use to supplement 0.05CmA trickle charge (fully activate electronic). At the same time to avoid the charge by way of trickle charge-off, it will damage the battery characteristics, the timer should be used to control the charging time. (Note: "CmA" in the charge and discharge process, CmA a specified size and said that the current battery capacity rated value, "C" refers to the battery's rated capacity.)3, is not recommended for fear of memory effect and the depth of battery discharge, due to excessive discharge of the battery will be damaged properties, so in the discharge process to pay special attention to the power switch at the same time to avoid long-term battery placed in a digital camera inside. Will not greatly reduced battery life. A week when not in use, a digital camera from the inside out away the best. With regard to high-quality rechargeable Sony VGP-BPS5 battery storage time, you can rest assured that in the dry at room temperature in the storage life of 10 years or so.4, although it is the same rechargeable battery, the use of old and new batteries and we also need extra attention, because even with the same brand of old and new batteries will also lead to damage of their own, digital camera-related part of the circuit will be in danger. (My Minolta camera, a built-in flash is for this reason the damage.)5, when the long-term storage to ensure that at least a year on a battery charge and discharge (full of storage, re-opening of the first discharge and then recharge.) So that it can be effective in preventing first-class and as a result of leakage of the Sony PCGA-BP2NY battery cell and lead to self-discharge The battery performance. (Self-discharge rate. Lithium-ion battery for 8% / month; lithium polymer battery cells for the 20% / month; nickel-metal hydride and nickel cadmium batteries for 100% / month; metal and lithium batteries for the 1% -2% / month)
