The charge cycle of lithium battery refers to the lithium battery is fully charged to completely consume the lithium battery for a charge cycle, every time the lithium battery for a full charge cycle will be on the life of the battery and the performance aspects of the damage, so avoid the full charge cycle on the battery is better to use.
2. How many charging cycles is the life span of a lithium battery?
Lithium battery life is generally measured by the number of cycles, charging cycle is a charging cycle, with the usual mouth is different only fully charged and consumed completely cycle refers to a charging cycle, such as battery power from 100% use to 60% plus full and then from 100% use to 40% only counts as a charging cycle, lithium battery life according to the use of different life, such as has been a complete Charge and discharge on the battery damage is greater for 300 to 500 charging cycles, after reaching the capacity of the battery will appear more serious loss, it can be said that the number of charging cycles on behalf of the lithium battery life.
3. How to increase the number of charging cycles of lithium batteries?
(1) the use of shallow charging cycle, the use of lithium batteries in the use of excessive charging and excessive discharge will have an irreparable impact on the life of lithium batteries, lithium batteries in the use of specifications also mentioned, to ensure that the life of the battery to ensure that the battery is generally discharged to ensure that the battery power in the 25% to stop using, charging should be when the power in the 80%, so that the use of lithium batteries will increase the service life.
(2) temperature, in the appropriate battery temperature can prevent battery aging, in extreme temperatures the battery aging degree accelerated so that the battery is expected to reduce the number of charging cycles, at the same time a charging cycle can not provide the normal amount of electricity.
(3) Reduce rapid charging, lithium battery charging can choose between fast and slow charging, rapid charging of lithium battery damage, frequent use of rapid charging will quickly reduce the expected number of lithium battery charging cycles, lithium battery lifespan will also be shortened.
(4) the preservation of lithium batteries, lithium batteries save the internal storage of power, full and no power are not utilized for storage, will keep the battery power at 40% to 60% of the lithium batteries is most appropriate, will not reduce the number of charging cycles.
4. Questions about the lithium battery charging and discharging cycles
(1) Will not unplugging the charger for a long time lead to overcharging?
For lithium batteries are now equipped with chargers have protective measures when the battery is full will actively block the power will not be completely 100% of the power. But for lithium battery charging should be equipped with the appropriate voltage and current charger.
(2) How does the charging cycle affect the battery capacity?
Lithium batteries are based on the chemical reaction obtained from the battery charging and discharging is a chemical reaction, so each charge and discharge will reduce the battery capacity to reach a predetermined charging cycle after the battery capacity will be reduced to less than 80%, followed by an increase in the internal resistance of the battery voltage and power drop, and finally can not be detected by the charger can not be charged.
(3) Will the lithium battery be unusable after reaching all the charging cycles of the lithium battery?
No, after reaching the expected number of charging cycles the performance of the battery starts to decline, the experience of using the battery decreases, it does not mean that the battery can not be used.
Conclusion
lithium battery charging cycle cycle times with charging and discharging, and lithium battery use temperature mode and so on have a relationship, lithium battery charging cycle cycle times related to the service lifespan of lithium batteries, battery voltage, internal resistance, power, capacity, want to achieve a better charging cycle cycle times need to be in accordance with the requirements of the use of lithium batteries.
