Switch to a Li-Ion Rechargeable Battery for Better Performance


When it comes to batteries, nothing can beat the performance of a Lithium ion Rechargeable Battery (Lion Rechargeable, or Li-Ion Rechargeable, for short). These maintain their charge longer than many other types of batteries, and they have a variety of uses. The lithium ion will often cost more than the other types, but they are of higher value for your products that use batteries.



One important item to note is that most Lithium ion Batteries, obviously, are rechargeable. Although you can get rechargeable alkaline batteries, the Lithium ion Batteries have more storage capacity to run your products when they are fully charged. Although you may be aware of lithium batteries, because they are the ones that most manufacturers tell you to use in electronic devices, they are not rechargeable; only the Lithium ion Batteries are rechargeable.

A basic difference between li-ion and alkaline batteries (the typical kind you buy in the store) is that you can only use the alkaline variety one time. They start off doing very well and they have a pretty long life, but they eventually will wear down and you'll have to buy new ones. With the lithium ion models, they start out with a longer life and have a stronger charge for a longer time. As they wear down you just have to recharge them to get more life from them.

The reason that many people have switched to Li-ion Batteries is because they work the best in portable technology. As an example, most people use the Lithium Ion Battery in their portable DVD player or other electronic device because it will hold a charge longer.


The li ion type of battery will often give you twice the amount of run time that you would get from a regular battery. Also, these batteries are generally designed so that they recharge in your electronic device so you won't have to put them in a specific charger. Another advantage of these is that they have a longer shelf life than other types do. They last 10-20% (depending on the type you choose) longer than other batteries.

One frustration relating to li-ion types of batteries is that they currently only come in a few sizes, so you may not always find them for your particular device. Expect this to change in the near term, as Lithium Ion Batteries are being demanded more and more by consumers.



Depending on the type of battery and what you want to use it for, Li-ion Rechargeable Batteries can be more expensive than alkaline brands -- in fact, the average Lithium ion Battery Pack will cost you about $25 overall. However, factor in the life of the li-ion battery, and I know you will believe it to be worth the cost.
