Hello everyone, welcome to the ZimZimDIY channel. For modern electronic devices that have built-in batteries or devices that can be charged, they are almost all popularly used as lithium-ion batteries, right? The ones that we often see are lithium-ion batteries, cobalt type, in the size 18650, which we will see a lot. And in addition to this cylindrical shape, the rectangular package is also used in modern mobile phones as well. Which they are often written as just Li-ion batteries. But now, there is another type of lithium battery used in mobile phones that is becoming more and more popular, which is the lithium-ion polymer battery or known in the abbreviation as Lipo battery or Lipo battery. It will have a similar rectangular shape, but will be clearly stated as a Lithium-ion Polymer battery. And some are designed to be very thin, similar to a credit card to make the mobile phone lighter. But if you still can't imagine it, It is easy to observe that Lipo batteries in other electronic devices are usually packed in a sealed silver bag. The size is a bit flat. In fact, they can be designed freely according to the materials and usage. Like this picture, it is a hexagonal lithium polymer battery for use in underwater vehicles, extra-small devices, such as car cameras, facial massagers, or some devices that do not require much weight, such as drones, power banks or new notebooks. We have started using it. It is considered that Lithium polymer batteries are not directly developed from Lithium Cobalt Oxide. But they will be upgraded to make the batteries safer. When we compare Li-ion (LCO) batteries with Li-po batteries, we can conclude that if you want high energy capacity and longer life, choose Lithium-ion batteries. But if you consider the weight, safety, and charging and using more current, choose a lithium-ion polymer battery. For this clip, I explain it simply in the style of the ZimZim channel. If there is any mistake in my information, you can comment and suggest below this clip. Thank you to all my friends who follow and watch.
