As the lightest material Lithium owns the highest electrochemical potential and considers the highest energy density per weight. The aim of using this high energy potential for portable power solutions was the beginning of a new technology era which gets more and more important. As its high capacity of 3.86Ah/g is an advantage for portable products, it has its disadvantages as well:
- special transportation rules for all lithium pack solution over
» two grams (lithium primary)
The correct choice of non-rechargeable batteries depends on your requirements, as the different chemical compounds used in this technology greatly change the cells performance. The main cell features and chemical compounds are…
- Li-SO₂
» voltage ~3.0V with high continuous current - Li-MnO₂
» voltage ~3.3V with higher nominal capacity - Li-SOCl₂
» voltage ~3.6V with temperature up to +85°C
» huge nominal capacities (Ah) but low continuous current
