As we all know, batteries are important components of electric vehicles, mainly used to store energy and drive electric vehicles. Unlike car batteries, which are starter batteries, electric motorcycles batteries are power batteries, also called traction batteries.
At present, the batteries of mainstream electric scooter motorcycles mainly include three types: lead-acid batteries, graphene batteries and lithium batteries. Storage batteries include lead-acid batteries, nickel-hydrogen batteries, sodium-sulfur batteries, secondary lithium batteries, air batteries, and ternary lithium batteries. In addition, the concept of semi-solid batteries has also emerged in recent years.
Lithium batteries
Lithium batteries are a common type of battery used in electric scooter motorcycles. They are made of lithium metal or lithium alloy as the negative electrode material and use non-aqueous electrolyte solutions. Its advantages are small and light, high efficiency and environmental protection. It is more beautiful and lighter than lead-acid batteries. But the price is slightly higher. Lithium batteries have high energy density and long cycle life, and have quickly occupied the vast majority of the electric vehicle battery market. At present, electric vehicles are mainly equipped with lithium iron phosphate batteries and ternary lithium batteries, which differ in performance and price.
Lead-acid battery
Lead-acid battery is a type of battery with low price, large capacity and mature technology. In recent years, its performance has been significantly improved, especially in terms of service life and power endurance, due to process reform, optimized formula and progress in charging technology. This battery mainly consists of lead and lead oxide as the plate, and the electrolyte is an aqueous solution of sulfuric acid. Its advantages include stable voltage, safety and relatively low price. However, its energy density is low, the cycle life is about 300-500 times, and frequent daily maintenance is required.
Graphene battery
In addition to lithium batteries and lead-acid batteries, there is a battery between the two, which is cheaper than lithium batteries and lighter than lead-acid batteries. It is the graphene battery.
Graphene battery is a technological breakthrough product combining lithium batteries with graphene materials. Its significant advantages include three times the storage capacity of the best existing lithium batteries, faster charging speed, and a service life of twice that of lithium batteries. It is also an upgraded version of ordinary lead-acid batteries. Compared with ordinary lead-acid batteries, graphene batteries have certain advantages in weight and capacity. Due to the increasing global attention to environmental protection, it is expected that electric scooter motorcycles batteries will be gradually replaced by lithium batteries and graphene batteries in the future.
If you want to have an electric scooter motorcycle that lasts longer and is safer, it is very important to choose a better electric scooter motorcycle battery. Cyclemix believes that each battery has its own unique advantages and disadvantages, and consumers need to decide which type of battery to use based on their actual needs and budget when choosing.
