Advantages and Disadvantages of Lithium battery
Advantages
1 Its energy is relatively high. It high storage energy density that has reached 460-600Wh/kg, which is about 6-7 times of lead-acid battery;
2 It has a long service life that can last for more than 6 years. It has been recorded that batteries with lithium iron phosphate as the positive electrode can be used 10,000 times;
3 It has high rated voltage (single working voltage is 3.7V or 3.2V), which is equal to the series voltage of 3 nickel-cadmium or nickel-hydrogen rechargeable batteries. Thus is convenient for battery power packs;
4 It has high power bearing capacity, and the lithium iron phosphate lithium ion battery for electric vehicles can reach the charging capacity of 15-30C, which is convenient for high-intensity start-up acceleration;
5 Its self-discharge rate is very low, which is one of the most outstanding advantages of the battery, generally can be 1% / month or less, less than 1 / 20 of nickel-hydrogen battery;
6 It is light in weight and has a weight of about 1/6-1/5 of the lead acid product in the same volume;
7 It has high adaptability to high and low temperature and can be used in -20 ° C ~ 60 ° C environment. After processing, it can be used in -45 ° C environment;
8 It is environmentally friendly and Its production, use and scrapping do not contain or produce any toxic and harmful heavy metal elements and substances such as lead, mercury and cadmium;
Disadvantages
1 Lithium batteries are less secure and there is a danger of explosion;
2 LiCoO2 ion battery cannot discharge at high current. And it is expensive and not safe;
3 Lithium-ion battery lines need to be protected to prevent the battery from being overcharged;
4 High production requirements and high cost.
5 Lithium batteries have limited use conditions and are dangerous when used at high and low temperatures.
