Until new nano lithium technology comes in later in 2009, mobile phone batteries are still notoriously flaky. Just when you need to make an important call the battery indicator tells you the charge is all but extinct. You may have conditioned your battery in line with all of the advice and old wives tales floating around but still have to re-charge yours every day. Short of buying a spare and keeping that charged what can you do?
The battery chemistry has 3 types: NiCad, NiMH, and Lithium-ion. NiCad, or NiCd, battery is used in older cordless drill tools. They are the least expensive, so almost all inexpensive cordless tools use this type of battery. There is one problem with this battery. It's toxic to the environment. So when it's time to dispose the dead NiCd battery it's a problem.
Most of the laptops now a day are equipped with lithium mines ontario-ion batteries. Though there are Nickel-cadmium, Nickel metal hydride, etc, after the invention of Lithium-ion battery, because of its efficiency most of the laptop manufacturers are selling it along with their respective laptops.
You can buy cheap cell phone batteries for any model. Every cellphone model has an appropriate cellphone battery that works best with these. But a cellphone battery from the same brand may not work with the other models.
Additional features include a built-in L.E.D. light on the drill which will help illuminate the working area when sufficient light is not available. Plus, a phosphorescent bumper ring which glows in the dark will allow the driver to be found even in the darkest environment without additional lighting. Lastly, the driver comes as a kit with two compact Lithium battery stocks-Ion batteries, a 15 minute rapid charger and a convenient tool case for carrying the tool and accessories.
Lithium mines Ontario-Ion batteries are revolutionary in fact, not just simply better than Ni-Cd. They don't have memory effect, which means you can easily use them a little and then partially recharge them just to discharge them to a certain percentage of their capacity other than zero. They like partial charges and discharges better than full ones, but memory effect is not something you should be aware of.
So how long does it last? Anything from 3 to 9 years if you search this question on Google. Everyone has a different opinion. In my experience about 6 years is the average. It's basically a large watch battery and is constantly supplying a trickle of power to the motherboard. Just like many of my watches the battery can last 2 years or up to 6 years (Fossil watches don't seem to last long for me for some reason). How long was the PC in the warehouse before it was delivered? And, how long was the motherboard in the warehouse before it was installed in the PC?
