Most battery failures are not caused by only choosing the wrong cell, although finding the right cell for an application is more challenging than many expect. Many failures are caused…
We use LFP for long lifetime, cheap and safe systems; NMC and NCA for higher current rates and higher energy density; and LTO for low-temperature performance, great aging behaviour, and…
When a battery supplier promises long cycle life, high capacity, fast charging, wide temperature operation, and a strong warranty, the real question is not whether the numbers look good —…
Over the past months I travelled through the United Arab Emirates, Thailand and China, and the insights below come directly from the conferences, workshops and meetings I had with project…
Li-ion batteries can catch fire or explode due to a thermal runaway, often triggered by overcharging, physical damage, or manufacturing defects. Implementing robust safety measures can significantly reduce these risks…
Li-ion batteries are typically charged in two main phases: the Constant Current (CC) phase and the Constant Voltage (CV) phase. Proper management of voltage, current, and temperature is crucial to…
