Learn the 3 Most Common Myths About the Industrial Lithium-ion Battery

Since its discovery in 1991, industrial lithium-ion batteries have revolutionized the way we do business. Lithium-ion batteries have multiple advantages that make them ideal for any operation. The battery’s unique properties allow businesses to improve safety, efficiencies, and significantly improve ROI. Lithium-ion batteries have multiple benefits over their IC and lead acid counterparts, including faster re-charge times, opportunity charging, long cycle life, and full cloud data reporting (Flux SkyBMS). Li-ion batteries virtually eliminate hazardous off-gassing and spills, making them safer and more eco-friendly than their competitors. Despite the many benefits of lithium-ion batteries, there are many common myths that hold some people back from investing in this revolutionary technology. 

All lithium-ion batteries use cobalt, an ethically and environmentally controversial material 
Lithium-ion tech is too new for us to understand whether we’ll benefit from it completely
Lithium-ion batteries aren’t as environmentally friendly as everyone claims
