How Long Does The 3V Motherboard Battery Go On?

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 cobalt mine-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.



If you use a Lithium mines Ontario ion battery make sure it doesn't come in contact with other metals, as the ions might be disturbed leading to a defective battery. Jarring a battery by dropping your cell phone can cause damage even if the phone looks unharmed. Extreme weather conditions can also spoil batteries. Heaters, ovens, stoves and other hot items can cause a battery to overheat or melt. As with other electronic equipment, cell phones should never get wet. This directly affects the circuit and the battery and causes them to rust.

The Makita BDF452HW cordless drill comes with an 18-V lithium-ion battery and it charges in only 15 minutes. That's a much quicker charge time than almost any other drill you can find. Along with the quick-charge, the battery life is also very good so you don't really have to worry too much about it dying on you.

Keep the Lithium battery stocks dry. High moisture levels damage connectors between it and the connector and that can lead to safety risks or unit failure. If possible avoid using it in damp places.

Frequent charging is good for lithium ion batteries. Accordingly, feel free to charge them even when they are only slightly depleted. You may also "top-off" your batteries by plopping them onto (or turning on) the charger for a few minutes each month. Though you don't need to store li-ion batteries fully charged, giving them a little juice while dormant can keep them feeling good and strong.

Battery chargers for mobile phones are notable in that they come in a wide variety of connector-styles and voltages, most of which are not compatible with other manufactures' phones or even different models of phones from a single manufacturer.
