6.8 Features of Lithium-Ion (Li-Ion) batteriesLithium-Ion batteries have several features that make them more suitable for use in portable handphones thanother materials used, such as Nickel Hydride.Lithium-Ion batteries are better for the environment as they do not contain any regulated materials, such asmercury, cadmium, lead etc.You may be mistakenly lead to believe by the name that Lithium-Ion batteries contain Lithium metal. In fact theycontain no Lithium metal and are therefore safe to carry by air transport.A great advantage of Lithium-Ion batteries is their ability to be recharged for between 300 and 500 times. Lithium-Ion batteries exhibit no “memory effect”, as is observed with repetitive shallow discharge and charging of Ni-Cadbatteries6.8.1 Circuit diagram of Li-Ion batteryFigure 2: Circuit diagram of Li-Ion battery 600-06076.8.2 Charging Li-Ion batteriesThe following points should be born in mind for the charging of Li-Ion batteries:Li-Ion batteries require a constant charge voltage of 8.4V for all G600 battery chargers (dual charger EB-CR600and handsfree charger).Charging will be at 1.5CmA (where C is the nominal capacity of the battery). The charging current will naturallydecrease to OA while the battery voltage remains constant.Issue 1 Section 6 MCUK980101C8Revision 0 6 - 8 Service ManualTECHNICAL SPECIFICATIONS
