Talk about battery safety

At present, the issue of battery safety has gradually become a hot topic of discussion, especially as more and more people begin to use low-resistance high-power atomizers, battery safety has become more important. At present, the most common type of battery on the market is the 18650 battery we usually use. When it comes to the safety of the 18650 battery, the insulation of the battery is the most important point, let us first talk about some precautions on the battery insulation.

Battery daily maintenance

In this chapter, we will tell you how you should care for your battery and some of the things you should or should not do.

Never do these things:

First of all, do not put your battery and some coins or other metal items in the pocket at the same time, the battery and metal items together can easily produce short circuit or battery fluid leakage.

In general, the best way is to equip your battery with a special battery holding box, which can maximize the safety of the battery.

In addition, never put your battery in your car, the excessive temperature in the car can cause fatal damage to your battery. Also, whenever and wherever, make sure your battery is not exposed to an excessively high temperature environment.

Do not charge the battery unattended, so you can beware of any accidents in the charging battery.

Using the same type of battery:

Another aspect of battery safety is that you should always use the same type of battery in series or parallel. Here are some things you should be aware of when using multiple batteries at the same time.

Whether in parallel or in series, the same brand and the same model of battery should be used together.

When using multiple batteries in the same device, it should be noted that multiple batteries need to be discharged or charged at the same time to ensure that the battery capacity of multiple batteries is the same.

If you can, you can even label the batteries in groups and use them separately.

If the batteries originally paired have been used separately, it is best not to pair them again for use.

Chemical principle of battery:

There are many types of batteries with different chemical principles on the market, and understanding them can better ensure the safety of our batteries.

First, the safest is the battery using the IFR principle, the battery uses the lithium iron phosphate (LFP) reaction, which has a weaker chemical reaction than other types of batteries when used.

Slightly less safe than IFR batteries are IMR batteries, which use lithium manganese oxide (LMO) reaction, similarly, this type of battery will not have too intense chemical reactions in use.

After the IMR battery is the INR battery, the battery usually uses nickel manganese cobalt (NMC), lithium aluminum cobaltate (NCA) or nickel cobalt aluminum (NCA) reaction, such batteries are inferior to IFR, IMR batteries in safety.

The last category is the worst safety ICR type of battery, using lithium cobalt oxide (LCO), which has a more intense chemical reaction when used.
