Hello guys welcome to the new tutorial. In this post, we will discuss Different Types of Battery. A battery is an electrical device that used to give power to the system and stored the electrical energy in form of chemical energy. The battery is created with a combination of cells that stored the energy in form of chemicals. It is also named electromichimcal modules. There are different devices that consists of battery to work on such as laptops. Mobiles. watches lights, etc.

Different types of batteries are used at different levels according to design and construction. Here we discuss all types of batteries with the details and their applications. So let get started.

Types of Battery

• There are two main types of batteries according to charging and not charging combination

• Primary that can not be charged
• Secondary Battery Rechargeable
• These are 2 main types but there are further subtypes we discuss all these in detail.

Primary Battery

• It is such a category of battery that is used for one time and after that become useless mean cannot charge again. It is also called a voltaic battery.
• As it has disadvantages that can not recharge but has some features like less cost and easy to use..

Types of Primary Battery

• Different types of primary batteries are described here with the details.

Lithium Battery

• This category of battery is very commonly employed in different projects since there is different innovation has made in it. These are preferred to use since can handle different temperature values, and operates for a long time interval.

Cadmium Battery

• It is designed with the use of mercury and cadmium and is mostly used for fewer applications since cadmium has toxic behavior but is also used in place of zinc battery.

Alkaline battery

• It is also called zinc and manganese dioxide battery. It is somewhat is costly and mostly used.

Zinc Carbon Battery

• It is also called leclanche cell or carbon cell battery and very commonly used. Its common features are high reliability, less cost.

Secondary Battery Types

• The main types of secondary batteries are described here with the details.
  • Lead-Acid
  • Lithium-ion(Li-ion)
  • Nickel Cadmium
  • Nickel-Metal Hydride(Ni-MH)

Lead-Acid Battery

• It can be recharged after discharging process and the first time was introduced by Gaston Plante in 1859.
• WIth The interesting thing is that it is the first rechargeable battery that was used and invented.
• As compared to other batteries there is it uses less energy density. But it offered the larger value of power to weight ratio.
• Since its price is less soused for starting of motor.
• When it is charged stored the energy in form of potential energy at the electors created with the lead that is cathode and PbO2 is positive or anode.
