Rechargeable Lithium LiFePO4 Batteries, also known as secondary battery, refer to batteries that can be used to activate active materials by charging after the battery is fully discharged.
Because of the reversibility of chemical reaction, a new battery can be recovered. That means after a chemical reaction is converted into electric energy, the chemical system can be repaired. So we call it a rechargeable battery. The main rechargeable lithium batteries on the market include Ni-MH battery, nickel-cadmium battery, lead-acid battery and lithium-ion battery. As a kind of rechargeable battery, lithium-ion battery can be said to be a latecomer, and its market share is gradually increasing. On the contrary, the share of lead-acid batteries and nickel-metal hydride batteries is gradually decreasing. We can compare the difference between lithium-ion batteries and other batteries from multiple angles.
1. Energy density
Lithium ion has a capacity density of at least 150kg/Wh, which is three times that of NiMH batteries and ten times higher than that of lead-acid batteries.
2. Self-discharge
Self-discharge means that the battery loses power when it is not in use. The self-discharge rate of lithium-ion is ≤3.5% per month. Such a low self-discharge rate ensures that the lithium-ion battery can still be used after half a year. Lead-acid batteries will use up all their power in two months. However, it is still recommended to fully charge the lithium-ion battery every 3 months to extend the battery life.
3. Cycle life
Compared with a lead-acid battery with a life span of only 300 cycles, a brand new lithium-ion battery has a cycle life of at least 3000 cycles, and after 3000 cycles, it can still guarantee 80% of the power.
The application of rechargeable lithium batteries is quite extensive. According to the different capacity, from small toy batteries to large energy storage batteries, they are all application scenarios of lithium batteries. Below we will introduce 6 applications to make you have a strong interest in lithium battery.
Portable power station is the product we use most when camping, because it can provide not only DC output, but also AC output. We can charge the mobile phone, power the light bulb through the DC output, and provide a stable current to the device through the AC output. Lithium-ion battery is the most important part of portable power station, because it stores a large amount of electricity. On the market, the battery widely used is NCM lithium battery cell, because the weight of NCM is lighter and the discharge current is stronger. The emergence of portable energy storage can make your camping life colorful.
Golf cart can also be understood as electric four-wheeled vehicles, which are environmentally friendly passenger vehicles designed and developed specifically for golf carts. Imagine how embarrassing it is when your golf cart runs out of power while driving. Why not try our Tycorun special lithium battery for golf carts? Large capacity, high discharge current, and light weight make your golf cart run 33% more.
As an angler, you are no stranger to marine batteries. Marine batteries need to overcome three major difficulties. First, they need a high waterproof rating, second, they need a large discharge current, and third, they need a large capacity. The high waterproof rating is to prevent water from penetrating into the battery and causing a short circuit. Large discharge current in order to easily drive the motor. The large-capacity battery can increase the cruising range. On the whole, lithium batteries are the most suitable choice. And our marine batteries can meet the above conditions. Use lithium batteries to make your sailing more fun.
Long-distance travel seems to be the most ideal way of vacation for modern people. We can enjoy the scenery and the rising sun along the way with our family. At this time, you need an RV. More importantly, you need a powerful lithium-ion battery. Lithium battery can provide support when you need electricity. When you want to watch TV, you will use a lithium battery. When you turn on the portable electric light, you will use the lithium battery, when you want to cook food, you will use the lithium battery. Your life’s electricity needs can be easily met by a lithium battery. What are you waiting for? Come and find out.
It can be said responsibly that green energy will be a major theme in the next 10 years. Photovoltaic system is one of the green energy systems. The photovoltaic system converts clean and pollution-free sunlight energy into electrical energy, stores it in the battery, and provides it to the load when needed. Now, all parts of the world are vigorously developing photovoltaic energy storage systems. For energy storage systems, the battery system is the most important part. Generally speaking, all battery systems now use lithium-ion batteries as energy storage containers. Lithium batteries have at least 3000 cycles and can operate safely for at least 10 years. Moreover, as an environmentally friendly battery, lithium batteries cause much less pollution to the environment than lead-acid batteries. So this is why we are vigorously promoting lithium-ion batteries.
