What Are Lithium-Ion Batteries?
A lithium-ion battery is a type of secondary (rechargeable) battery that uses lithium-ion movement between electrodes to store and release energy. They are widely used in: ● Cell phones ● Electric vehicles (EVs) ● Aerospace systems ● Military applications Compared to other types, lithium-ion batteries offer: ✔️ Quick charging ✔️ Long lifespan ✔️ Enhanced safety ✔️ Lower environmental impact
