Details About Charging Lithium Batteries That You May Not Be Aware Of!

Understanding the nuances of lithium battery charging not only enhances the longevity of your batteries but also ensures a secure charging experience. Let's delve into the essential notes to keep in mind to make the most out of your lithium battery technology. Feel free to email me at abby@porffor.com if you'd like any specific details added or modified!

①First, connect the electric vehicle battery terminal and then plug in the mains power.

②Charging is not allowed if the temperature of the lithium battery is below 0°C. If you need to charge below 0°C, you need to choose a battery which is ok to operate under 0°C. Charging at extreme temperatures can be detrimental to battery life. It's advisable to charge lithium batteries within a specified temperature range.

 

③If the lithium battery electric vehicle is not used for a long period, it is recommended to charge it to a half-charged state before storing it.

 

④Make sure to use a charger specifically designed for the corresponding type and series of lithium batteries. Better not use lead acid charger to a lithium battery if the supplier does not confirm for you.

⑤Wait for the battery to cool down before charging if the temperature is high immediately after discharge.

 

⑥Lithium batteries do not have a memory effect and can be used and recharged without any concerns.

 

⑦ After the lithium battery is fully charged, avoid keeping the charger plugged in for an extended period.

 

⑧Voltage and Current Limits:Lithium batteries have specific voltage and current limits for charging. Exceeding these limits can lead to overheating and safety issues.

 

⑨CC-CV Charging:Charging typically follows a Constant Current (CC) phase until a certain voltage is reached, then switches to a Constant Voltage (CV) phase to top off the charge.

 

⑩Balancing:In multi-cell lithium batteries, balancing ensures that individual cells have similar charge levels. Some chargers have balancing functions to prevent overcharging of any single cell.

 

Situations where the lithium battery may not be fully charged include:

  1. Inconsistent consistency of the lithium batteries, resulting in a voltage difference in the internal cells.
  2. Mismatched protection board, leading to confusion between the parameters of ternary and iron-lithium batteries.
  3. Mismatched charger causing the charging voltage to be too high or too low.
