As a demonstration in Andreas Christensen PhD. thesis on the subject “Management of Lithium Air batteries”. The demonstration was done with a Lithium balance BMS prototype, that could manage the LiO battery and make the vehicle run on an electric circuit. Andreas Christensen says: ” It’ a 16 cell Li-air 2P8S configuration of button cells. …

Will Tesla Gigafactory become a big game changer for the battery industry ?
Lithium-Ion Battery Prices Fell 70% in the Last 18 Months. Tesla’s battery factory gets a lot of attention. When completed, the so-called Gigafactory will manufacture more lithium-ion batteries each year than were produced globally in 2013. That will help push prices further downward. But a few other large producers — LG Chem, Panasonic and Samsung …

Batteries perform better without the strain
Using high-intensity X-rays to study the crystal structure of a common battery material while it charges and discharges, researchers have filled in new details about how mechanical strain hinders battery performance. These insights could help battery chemists tailor the composition of electrode materials to make better high-power batteries.

Lithium-ion batteries on passenger aircrafts banned by U.N. agency
The U.N. aviation agency has now prohibited shipments of lithium-ion batteries as cargo on passenger aircraft, following concerns by pilots and plane makers that they are a fire risk. Lithium metal batteries, which are used in watches, have already been banned on passenger planes globally. The International Civil Aviation Organization’s 36-state governing council said the …
