Au fur et à mesure que l’évolution de l’électronique portable progresse, le poids de l’appareil continue de diminuer. Dans de nombreux cas, la batterie ou la batterie constitue le composant le plus important d’un appareil électronique portable.
Generally, carbon-based batteries offer lower weight compared to alkaline batteries but sacrifice performance.
Lithium battery cells, on the other hand, are lighter than alternative primary chemistries. For instance, while a AAA alkaline battery typically weighs around 12 grams, a AAA lithium battery weighs only 8 grams. Moreover, lithium cells typically boast superior shelf life and performance.
Li-ion and lithium polymer batteries significantly outweigh other rechargeable batteries of similar size, contributing to the enhanced portability of numerous electronic devices.
