    Misc. Looking for entry level DIY ideas

    I'm looking for a way to use these batteries that is safe and also useful. I've looked into buy inverters to turn them into portable battery packs but am out of my depth and don't want to create a device with serious potential fire hazards without thoroughly understanding the ins and outs and...

    Could you check this Li-ion charging circuit?

    Can secondary cell can be described in circuit simulator?? With other symbols like capacitor. Also I wonder if there's a program that provide secondary cell(like Li-ion battery). Please help me

    Lithium-ion rechargeable batteries

    I want to know how a lithium ion rechargeable cell works with very basics details. I don't need a simple describtion like most of the websites and videos. I need a resource that explain the chemistry and physics of a Li ion cell from very basics of knowledge. Could you please introduce such a...

    I How do I know the lithium content of a lithium-ion battery?

    Power bank is common for our daily life, especially for our smart phone, which always a lithium-ion battery. Taking airplane is easy at our daily life, but there are restrictions on lithium content for air travel, thus air travelers ask the question "How much lithium in a battery am I allowed to...

    How much current does a cell phone use?

    I am doing a series of videos on the history of electricity and I am working on a video on Volta and the first battery. Anyway, I want to compare the voltaic pile to a typical li-ion battery running my iPhone. Now the voltaic pile could easily create 20 V of potential but it had high...

    Just simple question about a li-ion battery in a non-hybrid car

    i just had curiosity when i saw car magazine about http://www.roadandtrack.com/new-cars/videos/a18350/lithium-batteries-not-just-for-hybrids/ What is the first car model using li-ion battery in their starter motor..? Is it Porche's track-oriented models?

    Li-ion battery positive electrode attraction

    I don't understant how the positive electrode can attract both electrons and the positive Li ions as they both flow to it. Also, the way to start the whole process is to let the electrons flow, right? (Close the circuit.) Without it, the ions also don't want to start flowing, although there is...

    How Does Current Affect Li-Ion Battery Efficiency?

    Hi, I am trying to figure out how Li-Ion batteries operate in regards to efficiency. I understand they have rated voltage and current etc. and to operate them at these parameters if possible. However, I'm wondering is it simply the current that has effect on their efficiency. By Efficiency I...

    Measuring SoC/life on Li-ion battery - help please

    Hi all, I've been trying to find some sort of multimeter/voltmeter/etc that will allow me to get an accurate (and independent of the handset) read on state of charge, or remaining life, on a standard cell phone li-ion battery. I've found a few voltmeters and the like, but my understanding...

    Nanowire Li-ion battery. Is there a sense?

    Recently, there is a new type of battery is developing that has silicon anode which is able to absorb 8 times more Li-ions than graphite anode. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Nanowire_battery" But if I no make mistake the main limitation of Li-ion battery is its cathode, not anode. Usual...

    How Does Li-ion Battery Chemistry Work?

    Could somebody give me detailed explanation how Li-ion chemistry works? For example,if Li ions (cathions) just migrate from one host material (such as graphite) to another (such as Cobalt oxide) where are electrons taken from to run in external circuit? In more common type of battery such as...
