At some point, the 3.6 V of a single lithium ion battery just won’t do, and you’ll absolutely want to stack LiIon cells in series. When you need high power, you’ve either got to increase voltage or ...

How a parallel-connected battery can increase the energy-storage capacity of smart glasses and their unique challenges. How parallel battery-management ICs can help maximize runtime and maintain ...

One of the main concerns affecting the uptake of battery packs is safety, particularly with respect to fires caused by cell faults. Mitigating possible risks from faults requires advances in battery ...

For those willing to put some elbow grease into it, there is an almost unlimited supply of 18650 lithium ion batteries around for cheap (or free) just waiting to be put into a battery pack of some ...

Driven by the accelerating uptake of electric vehicles, a dramatic increase in the usage of lithium-ion batteries (LIB) has occured. However, individual LIBs have low voltages and relatively small ...

This is probably fairly straightforward for an EE to weigh in on so I thought I’d post this question here for posterity in the hopes that it’ll solve the issue for other designers. The challenge is ...

I have a Sears deep-cycle lead-acid 12v battery already which I've only used once or twice a year for certain power applications. I was thinking of purchasing an identical model and wiring it in ...
