Types Of Laptop Battery

Currently there are three types of batteries commonly used for laptops: Lithium Ion ,Nickel Cadmium, and Nickel Metal Hydride. Lithium Ion (Li-ion) This type is lightweight and performs better than the other types of batteries.. These batteries have very high energy densities (almost twice as that of NiCad batteries) .Li-ion batteries produce the same energy as NiMH but weighs approximately 20%-35% less. They do not suffer from the “memory effect“ like their NiMH and Ni-Cds. There’s usually a rapid-charging option with lithium-ion batteries, which is good when you’re in a time crunch. These batteries are eco-friendly, user friendly .Their substances are totally non-hazardous . Nickel Cadmium (Ni-Cd) Nickel Cadmium (Ni-Cd) batteries is the oldest battery type of the rechargeable batteries,but today they are out of date.They are heavy and very prone to the "memory effect". When recharging a NiCd battery that has not been fully discharged, it "remembers" the old ch...
