Many consumers often have the same concept of battery use in the process of battery use. Lithium batteries are now the mainstream, but the previous use of nickel-metal hydride batteries is still applied to lithium batteries. In fact, lithium batteries are similar to nickel-metal hydride. In addition to different products, batteries are used in different ways.
Newly purchased lithium battery: The first three times are used until the natural shutdown, and then the original direct charge is used to charge the mobile phone to full, and then continue to charge for about 1 hour (about 2 hours above 2000mah).
Everyday: You can fill it up, and it will take more than 1 hour to fill it up. Avoid late night charging (high grid voltage). The battery can be used as soon as it is charged, and can be used for alarm or shutdown. Note that the battery that is turned off should be charged as soon as possible, otherwise the battery will self-discharge and the voltage will continue to drop, which may cause the self-locking protection to fail to charge. Make a habit: when you arrive at the unit during the day and at home at night, start charging, unplug the power after charging or leaving, and before going to bed.
Use: General lithium batteries can be charged, used, and stopped. Cycle life refers to the number of full charge and full discharge. Partial charge and discharge can be understood as a fraction of the life. The key to battery use: The battery is fully charged and can be recharged for 20 minutes to half an hour to reach saturation, but it must be avoided for a long time after being fully charged. Continued charging for a long time after full can cause side reactions. As a result, the capacity decreases and the internal resistance becomes large. The capacity decreases and the phone shuts down as soon as the phone is called. PPC and other devices with power chip, it is best to use it until it is recharged, mainly to consider the issue of power display measurement.
Continued charging after the battery is full hurts the lithium battery. Continue to charge after full, the battery will produce side reactions, reduce the amount of active materials, increase the amount of garbage, reduce the capacity, increase the internal resistance, severe overcharge directly damage the battery structure, resulting in battery scrap. Now some chargers also provide a charging protection mode, which will adjust the charging mode according to whether the battery is fully charged, which can effectively protect the battery.
Lithium-ion batteries can be recharged at any time and have a limited impact on life. It is recommended to charge the battery with a fuel gauge, such as PPC, after automatic shutdown to avoid the impact. It can be charged at any time and can be stopped at any time. If it is fully charged and continues to charge, it will affect the battery life.
