By now you should be aware of the fact that the Lithium Polymer Battery is developed on the basis of liquid lithium-ion battery. The anode and cathode materials of LiPo battery are the same as liquid lithium-ion battery, but it uses gel electrolyte and aluminum plastic film as the outer package, so it was lighter and thinner, higher energy density and safety features, and is widely relied upon by customers at home and abroad.
Unfortunately, not everyone is into the prospect of using a round lipo battery. While they might have their reasons, this doesn’t always have to be the case. In this blog post, we take you through the top reasons for buying a novel LiPo battery.
High Energy Density
The weight of a high discharge rate battery is half that of a nickel-cadmium or nickel-hydride battery of the same volume. Actually, the volume is 40-50% that of nickel-cadmium and 20-30% that of nickel-hydride, making it a large capacity battery of the same volume. In short, you will benefit from high energy density when you choose to buy a shaped battery.
Thin Thickness
If you want a thin battery, then there lithium-polymer battery will serve you perfectly. The liquid lithium battery adopts the method of first customizing the shell and then plugging the positive and negative electrode materials.
There is a technical bottleneck when the thickness is below 3.6 mm, while the polymer cell doesn’t have this problem. The thickness can be less than 1mm, which is in line with the development direction of applications thinning.
Customizable Shape
We can never conclude without mentioning the sheer fact that a polymer battery can increase or reduce cell thickness according to customer demand, the development of new cell model, cheap price, mold opening cycle. Actually, some even are available according to the shape of applications tailored shaped battery, to make full use of battery shell space, improve the battery capacity.
There is more to using a mini lipo battery than what is included in this simple guide. That’s why you should take it upon yourself to do a bit of research here and there before visiting a battery factory.
While it might seem like a waste of your precious time, this information will certainly help ensure you get the most from your ultra-narrow battery. So, what are you waiting for before you finally get going?
