How to avoid risks when using lithium batteries

How to avoid risks when using lithium batteries


With the rapid development of household electric vehicles, the use of lithium batteries is becoming more and more popular, but there are also more and more dangerous accidents such as explosions caused by lithium batteries. Many people think that since lithium batteries are so dangerous, why not use other, such as storage batteries? Today, I will give everyone a knowledge on this issue and the safe use of lithium batteries.


After several years of development, lithium batteries are becoming more and more mature. At present, more and more lithium batteries are used in electric vehicles on the market. Lithium batteries are widely recognized by the market for their small size, light weight, long life, and low temperature resistance. It is for friends who have higher and higher battery life requirements, such as takeaway couriers, etc., as well as office workers who are far away from home. Compared with the same battery, the battery life of lithium battery is much longer. If you choose a battery because of the risk of lithium batteries, it is a bit of a waste of time for choking.



The risks of lithium batteries are there, but compared with the development of the entire industry, the risks of lithium batteries need more prevention and control and good management, rather than one-size-fits-all elimination. Therefore, helping you understand the risks of lithium batteries can help you better avoid the risks of using lithium batteries.



How do the risks of lithium batteries arise? Let's take a look at how to choose and use lithium batteries correctly


Inferior products made by bad merchants (mixed use of various batteries)



Select high-quality cells, spot welding machine spot welding, neat wiring


1. In order to blindly pursue interests, unscrupulous merchants use defective cells to assemble batteries and sell them to users



2. Small workshop production, no formal production license and product inspection report, poor workmanship


There are many sellers (especially certain treasures) in the current market. In order to pursue the lowest price, they use defective batteries as genuine batteries to sell. In the place of maintenance (because express delivery does not accept batteries), in addition to the high failure rate and difficult maintenance, the use of defective batteries also has risks.


Therefore, you must find a regular manufacturer to buy lithium batteries. Manufacturers generally have cell test reports, as well as insurance, and the ability to resist risks is relatively strong, so that you can't find someone if you have a problem. Regular manufacturers have strict production processes, quality assurance, and after-sales are also real and effective. So don't buy 'fake' batteries for cheap.


3. Improper use by users (water ingress, short circuit, collision, fire and heat)


In addition to the quality problems of the battery itself, there are many other problems caused by improper use of the user.


Lithium batteries should not get into water. If the lithium batteries used by many people do not have a waterproof casing, it is easy to get water in when they are used in rainy days. Especially if they are not dried in time after entering the water, it is easy to corrode the nickel sheets and cause short circuits. It is very dangerous for you to recharge it.


In addition, the weather is too hot, and it is more dangerous to be exposed to the sun for a long time. It is best to recharge after 'cooling', because charging will also generate heat.


For lithium battery charging, try to choose an outdoor charging pile. Do not take it to your home for charging. It is best to watch it when you are charging at home. Do not leave the charger plugged in for a long time. After charging, you must unplug it in time.
