Battery Glossary

We all need to use battery in the life, but how do you know about the battery . Let’s share some glossaries about battery .

  • Battery: Two or more cells connected together
  • Cell: An electrochemical system that converts chemical energy into electrical energy.
  • Capacity: This is amount of energy a battery cell or battery pack actually provides. The higher the capacity is,the longer the equipment will run on battery power. Usually measured in Amp hours (Ah) or Milliamp hours ( mAh ).
  • Battery Charge: This is the process of passing electricity into the battery pack so the pack can be used to provide power when the user is away from mains power
  • Li-ion: Lithium Ion. This is one the newest battery types available. It can offer the same power as a Ni-MH battery in a smaller lighter package. This type does not suffer from ‘Memory Effect’ but it is expensive to manufacture.
  • Ni-Cd: Nickel Cadmium. This is one of the older battery technologies that are still in use. this type is usually found only in older equipment or applications that require a high power drain, this type is also very prone to ‘Memory Effect’.
  • Ni-MH: Nickel Metal Hydride. This battery type has virtually replaced the Ni-Cd batteries. This type offers higher capacities, around 30% more than a Ni-Cd cell of the same physical size. This type is also reported to suffer less from ‘Memory Effect’.
  • Battery Float Voltage: A unit for measuring electrical pressure. All batteries provide DC (Direct Current) electricity. It is important to ensure that the equipment you are powering is being provided with the correct volt or else damage may occur.
