‍PRIMARY BATTERIES

Lithium primary batteries also called lithium-metal batteries. 

Bobbin-type LiSOCl2 cells are suited for low-current applications due to their high energy density and very low self-discharge rate, Spiral-type lithium thionyl chloride batteries deliver the energy density demanded by high current pulse applications. The moderate rate cells are similar to bobbin cells but with a higher current capability. Two of the most used chemistries are Lithium Thionyl Chloride (Li-SOCL2) VOC 3,67V has one of the highest densities available on the market. Lithium Sylfurul Chloride (Li-SO2CL2) VOC 3,9V with even higher energy density than the Li-SOCL2 due to the higher voltage. Also increased current capabilities due to higher conductivity of electrodes.

RECHARGEABLE(SECONDARY) BATTERIES

Rechargeable or secondary cell / batteries can be charged, discharged into a load, and recharged many times compared with a disposable or primary battery. Lithium-Ion (Li-Ion) cells and batteries is a group of different cell chemistries with different performance, cost and safety characteristics. The most common chemistries are Lithium-Ion Cobalt Oxide (LiCoO2), which offers high energy density but presents higher safety risks, Lithium iron phosphate (LiFePO4), Lithium-Ion manganese oxide (LiMn2O4,Li2MnO3 or LMO), Lithium nickel manganese cobalt oxide(LiNiMnCoO2) or NMC),  offer lower energy density but longer lives and less likelihood of fire or explosion. Such batteries are widely used for electric tools, medical equipment, and other roles. NMC is a leading contender for automotive applications. Lithium nickel cobalt aluminum oxide (LiNiCoAlO2 or NCA). Lithium Polymer (LiPo or LIP) is of Lithium-Ion technology using a polymer electrolyte instead of a liquid electrolyte. We have selection of commonly used lithium-ion and lithium Polymer (LiPo) batteries in different configurations, designed in-house, with the UN certification in place. Throughout our cooperation with Norwegian company Mascot Electronics, we can offer high quality battery chargers, optimized for your battery, with all relevant certifications including medical.

Lead acid batteries (VRLA, AGM, GEL). SCHIVE offers pbq batteries to customers where high quality and long life is important. The batteries are manufactured in ISO certified environments and a very strict, Mil-Std 105B is used for incoming goods inspection. In the VRLA range this includes special VdS approved batteries, Cyclic (deep discharge) batteries, High Rate batteries, Mono-blocks and Front Access models. Nickel metal hydride (NiMH) cells and battery packs is a part of our business. This 1,2V rechargeable chemistry has quite high energy density and contains no heavy metals. It is considered environmentally friendly. One disadvantage of the NiMH cell is that it has a high rate of self-discharge.
