Lithium-Ion Battery
The generic term for batteries in which both terminals and the electrolyte contain lithium ions.
Depending on the material used for the terminals, the electrolyte and the separators, LIBs have very different properties. What they all have in common is that their capacity and performance is very high compared to other batteries. They are mainly used when size and weight are important, e.g. in racing and motor sports training sessions or when particularly high power is required, e.g. when a large number of loads need to be supplied.
