Lithium-ion battery cells have a number of specifications that are important to consider when selecting a battery for a particular application.
If you want to learn more, please visit our website.
Here are some common specifications to consider:
According to the different cathode materials, lithium-ion batteries are mainly divided into: LFP, LNO, LMO, LCO, NCM, and NCA. Different types of cells are used in different fields.
For example: Tesla cars chooses NCA ( LiNiCoAlO2 ) cell for car battery. LFP( LiFePO4 ) usually used for home energy storage.
This is the amount of energy the battery can store. Higher capacity means the battery can store more energy and provide more operating time for the device.
The voltage and current of a battery determine the amount of power it can deliver. For the same current, higher voltage can provide more power to the device.
Energy density is a measure of how much energy can be stored in a given volume or mass of the battery. The cell with high energy density will be more compact and lighter, but it may also have a shorter lifetime and may be more expensive.
This is the rate at which a battery can discharge its stored energy. It determines how quickly it can deliver its stored energy.
For example: If the battery capacity is 1Ah, 1C is 1A discharge 1h to complete the discharge, 5C is 5A discharge 0.2 hour to complete.
This is the rate at which a battery can be charged, typically measured in amperes (A). Higher charge rate means the battery can be charged more quickly.
Similar to discharge rate: 1C is 1A charge 1h to complete charge, 5C is 5A charge 0.2 hour to complete.
Self-discharge rate of a battery is the loss of power when the battery is not working, which is unavoidable. The lower the self-discharge rate, the longer the battery can maintain its power.
Maximum pulse discharge current is the battery in order to meet the conditions of use and the need for a short period of high current pulse discharge. Pulsed current can provide a strong current in an instant to start certain devices. Like engines.
This is the range of temperatures over which a battery can be used without damaging it. Such as charging temperature, discharging temperature, maximum current operating temperature, etc.
All batteries have internal resistance, and lithium batteries are no exception. The resistance value of the internal resistance of lithium batteries also determines the quality of lithium batteries.
The life cycle of a battery is a measure of how many times it can be charged and discharged before it fails. More cycles means that the battery will last longer before it needs to be replaced.
The safety of a battery is an important consideration, especially for applications where the battery is being used in a high-risk environment. It&#; s generally related to the material of the cell: LFP( LiFePO4 ) is more stable than NCA ( LiNiCoAlO2 ).
Suitable size and weight are important considerations in design and practical applications.
The cost of a battery is an important consideration for many applications.
Cheaper battery cells may not provide the same performance or life as more expensive batteries, but the right cost to choose a cell is the best choice.

1.Check the appearance and packaging.
2.Compare the weight. In general, the weight of lithium batteries is directly proportional to the capacity.
3.test the internal resistance and maximum current. Good quality lithium battery, the internal resistance is very small, the maximum discharge current is very large.
4.Test working with electricity.
Cylindrical batteries can be divided into lithium iron phosphate batteries, lithium cobalt oxide batteries, lithium manganate batteries, and cobalt-manganese hybrid batteries based on filler materials. According to the type of shell, cylindrical lithium batteries can be steel shell lithium batteries and polymer shell lithium batteries.
1. Appearance of cylindrical lithium battery
Cylindrical lithium batteries generally comprise positive electrode material (nickel cobalt oxide or zinc manganate), separator paper, and electrolyte. The casing of the cylindrical battery is made of aluminum-plastic composite pipe.
2. Cylindrical lithium battery capacity
The rated energy density of a single cylindrical lithium battery is between 300 and 500Wh/kg. Its specific power can reach more than 100W. According to different models and specifications of cylindrical batteries, the actual performance of this type of battery varies.
3. Safety and reliability of cylindrical lithium batteries
Cylindrical batteries have the characteristics of high safety and stability, resistance to overcharge, high temperature resistance, and long service life.
4. Cylindrical lithium battery application
Cylindrical lithium batteries can be used as power sources. In addition, they can also be seen in digital cameras, MP3 players, notebook computers, car starters, power tools, and other portable electronic products.
A general cylindrical lithium-ion battery consists of a casing, a cap, a positive electrode, a negative electrode, a separator, and an electrolyte. Generally speaking, the casing of a cylindrical battery is the battery&#;s negative electrode, and the cap is the battery&#;s positive electrode. The battery casing is made of nickel-plated steel plate.
The critical difference between power cylindrical batteries and ordinary cylindrical batteries lies in the conductive connection structure of the battery. A special high-current structure design is required because the general application current of power lithium batteries is relatively large.
Cylindrical lithium batteries usually have a five-digit model number. Starting with the numbers on the left, the first and second numbers refer to the battery diameter. The third number refers to the battery height. The fifth number refers to the circle.
There are many models of cylindrical lithium batteries; the more common ones are , , , , , , and .
The battery is a lithium battery with a diameter of 10 mm and a height of 44 mm. It&#;s the same size as what we usually call an AA battery. The capacity of this kind of battery is generally very small, only a few hundred mah. This battery is mainly used in mini electronic products, such as flashlights, mini audio, speakers, etc.
The battery is a lithium battery with a diameter of 14 mm and a height of 50 mm. This battery voltage is generally 3.7V or 3.2V. The nominal capacity of the battery is relatively small, a little larger than the battery, generally mah.
