A rechargeable lithium-ion version is available in the same size and is interchangeable in some uses. According to consumer packaging, replaces (BR) 2 ⁄ 3 A. In Switzerland as of 2008, these batteries accounted for 16% of lithium camera battery sales. [75] Used in flashlights and UV water purifiers. [135] CR2: 15270 (Li-ion rechargeable, 800 mA)
Under certain conditions, some battery chemistries are at risk of thermal runaway, leading to cell rupture or combustion.As thermal runaway is determined not only by cell chemistry but also cell size, cell design and charge, only the worst-case values are reflected here.
A lithium-ion or Li-ion battery is a type of rechargeable battery that uses the reversible intercalation of Li + ions into electronically conducting solids to store energy. In comparison with other commercial rechargeable batteries, Li-ion batteries are characterized by higher specific energy, higher energy density, higher energy efficiency, a longer cycle life, and a longer calendar life.
The first generation rechargeable alkaline batteries were introduced by Union Carbide and Mallory in the early 1970s. [3] [5] Several patents were introduced after Union Carbide's product discontinuation and eventually, in 1986, Battery Technologies Inc of Canada was founded to commercially develop a 2nd generation product based on those patents, under the trademark "RAM".

A rechargeable battery, storage battery, or secondary cell (formally a type of energy accumulator), is a type of electrical battery which can be charged, discharged into a load, and recharged many times, as opposed to a disposable or primary battery, which is supplied fully charged and discarded after use.
Rechargeable aluminium-based batteries offer the possibilities of low cost and low flammability, together with high capacity. [7] The inertness and ease of handling of aluminium in an ambient environment offer safety improvements compared with Li-ion batteries. Al-ion batteries can be smaller and may also have more charge-discharge cycles.
Rechargeable batteries in the AA size are available in multiple chemistries: nickel–cadmium (NiCd) with a capacity of roughly 600–1,000 mAh, [12] nickel–metal hydride (NiMH) in various capacities of 600–2,750 mAh [13] [14] and lithium-ion. NiCd and NiMH provide 1.2 V; lithium-ion chemistry has a nominal voltage of 3.6–3.7 volts, and ...
