The
mobile phone batteries are mainly classified in
to four categories. Different phones have different
types of batteries mostly Lithium-ion batteries.
1. Lithium
polymer type
Li - Poly is the latest and most advanced technology
batteries for cellular phones. It is ultra light
weight and does not explode. It is capable to
release up to 40 % more battery capacity than
the same size of NiMH batteries without suffer
from memory effect.
2. Lithium
Ion type
Li- Ion is also an advanced technology batteries
for cellular phones. It is does suffer from memory
effect and will delver up to 40 % more battery
capacity than the same size of NiMH batteries.
Li - Ion batteries are expensive and not suitable
for older cell phones.
3. Nickel
Metal Hydride Type
NiMH batteries are also not suffered from memory
effect. Compare to Ni Cad batteries it will run
40% longer on each charge and have double battery
life.
4. Nickel Cadmium Type
NiCad batteries are of older technology and suffer
from memory effect. This will reduce the batteries
overall capacity, run time and life span. Also
they must be completely discharge before each
recharge.
