(LiIon) a type of rechargeable battery for cell phones which is generally lighter weight than earlier battery types, has a relatively longer cycle life, and generally does not suffer from "memory" effect.
Type of rechargeable battery - lighter than nicads, less prone to memory effect, easier to monitor its state of charge, and more expensive. Pioneered by Sony.
Newer battery technology that does not suffer from "memory" problems.
newer, more powerful rechargeable battery for wireless phones.
These batteries do not suffer from the “memory effect” at all (see below). These batteries have twice the energy of Nickel Metal Hydride, even though they weigh 33% less. This is especially nice for portable items, such as laptops and camcorders.
A Lithium Ion battery is a rechargeable battery with twice the energy capacity of a NiCd battery and greater stability and safety. It is much less susceptible to memory effect than NiCd and NiMH batteries.
A rechargeable battery that uses lithium ions on the carbon electrode. This battery has no “memory” and is very reliable. It is used where high-energy density and light weight is of prime concern. Laptops and cellular phones are primary applications.
A type of rechargeable battery that has an improved performance when compared with similar NiCd and NiMH batteries.
The latest battery technology. Li-ion batteries hold more energy than other batteries of the same weight. They do not suffer from the memory effect that can damage other batteries if charged incorrectly.
Ultralife's Lithium-ION prismatic (rectangular) cells offer high energy density, high capacity and long cycle life in the most common, lightweight sizes - with no memory effect. These cells, which operate over a wide temperature range, are ideal for many portable electronic devices - including rugged military equipment.
The latest form of battery technology, lithium ion batteries offer the highest power-to-weight ratio (lots of power for very little weight) and no "memory effect" (losing charge when the battery is not completely drained before recharging).
A type of lightweight, powerful, rechargeable battery for wireless phones; more expensive than nickel-cadmium batteries but longer lasting.
One of the newer rechargeable battery technologies, Li-Ion batteries can deliver 40% more capacity than comparably sized NiCd batteries and are one of the lightest rechargeable batteries available today. Li-Ion batteries are the batteries of choice in notebook computer, wireless telephones and many camcorder models. They are also one of the more expensive rechargeable technologies.
This battery is never changed. It is recharged periodically by placing on a base that is plugged into an AC outlet. These batteries generally last 12-36 months.
A battery technology used in personal cellular telephones. Lithium Ion batteries generally provide more energy capacity than Nickel Metal Hydride batteries of the same weight.
