Lithium-polymer cells are offered in many sizes and are available in high-energy as well as high-rate configurations. Offered in prismatic sizes from small to large format, lithium-polymer cells make a great choice for small electronic devices and high-power lightweight drones.

Lithium iron phosphate chemistry yields less energy density compared to other Lithium-Ion blends but provides excellent cycle life, high-rate discharge capability, and superior thermal stability. In general, it is a great choice for long-life and remote applications.

Custom Power designs, develops and manufactures custom lithium primary battery packs and assemblies for a wide range of applications. Utilizing advanced mechanical and electronic design techniques, our skilled battery design team will optimize your custom lithium battery packs’ reliability, manufacturability, and safety. This process gives our customers the most dependable, most economical lithium primary battery pack solutions for their unique needs.

Custom Lithium Battery Packs & Assemblies

Lithium is the lightest non-gaseous metal, and its negative potential for battery packs is higher than any other metal. Lithium-chemistry batteries and battery packs have the highest specific energy (energy per unit weight) and energy density (energy per unit volume) of all battery types.

While most lithium cells have open circuit voltages (OCVs) between 2.7 and 3.6 V, most lithium primary cells have a relatively high impedance which generally limits them to low-drain applications. Special high-rate discharge cells are available for certain applications.

Lithium primary batteries often have broad operating temperature ranges, and can continue to function properly at temperatures from -55° to 150°C (-67° to 302°F). Though incineration or other exposure to extremely high temperatures can cause lithium batteries to experience catastrophic failure, other battery types typically react similarly in the same conditions.

Primary lithium battery packs are available in several different chemistries, each with its own set of performance and safety characteristics. Poly (carbon monofluoride) lithium, or (CF)X-Li; manganese dioxide lithium, or MnO2Li; thionyl chloride lithium, or SOCl2Li; and sulfur dioxide lithium, or SO2Li, have all proven to be especially popular and effective.

Custom Lithium-Manganese Dioxide Battery Packs & Assemblies

Manganese dioxide lithium cells are similar to poly (carbon mono-fluoride) cells in energy density, construction, safety, and OCV, but generally provide only about half the service life. However, MnO2Li cells are well-suited to applications requiring relatively high continuous- or pulse-current requirements, as their internal impedance is lower than that of other chemistries.

Manganese Dioxide Lithium Battery Specifications

Manganese dioxide lithium batteries are available in many standard cylindrical and coin sizes.

Custom Power manufactures custom nickel cadmium battery packs and assemblies. Our battery design team uses the latest mechanical and electronic design tools to optimize the reliability, safety and manufacturability of your custom battery packs.  This gives you the most cost effective and dependable nickel cadmium battery pack solution for your specific needs.

Custom Nickel Cadmium Battery Packs & Assemblies

Nickel Cadmium (NiCd) is a well-established chemistry for custom battery packs & assemblies. Although newer battery chemistries have taken the spotlight in recent years, Nickel Cadmium still remains a viable chemistry today for some applications.

 

Nickel Cadmium Battery Characteristics

Nickel Cadmium batteries have several advantages over other battery chemistries in use today.

• Nickel Cadmiums can take a fast charge, some in as little as 15 minutes and can take a charge at lower temperatures.
• Maintained properly, Nickel Cadmiums are capable of thousands of cycles.
• Nickel Cadmiums can sustain heavy loads.
