Li-Ion Batteries
Lithium-ion batteries are a type of rechargeable battery typically found in mobile phones, computers and also in electric cars. They are popular for their high energy density, low level of self-discharge and long service life. However, the biggest disadvantage is flammability; theycan catch fire or even explode under the wrong conditions. For this reason, you will not find such batteries in FUERGY technologies.
