Are Electric Vehicles Powered by Lithium Batteries?
1 Answers
Electric vehicle batteries are divided into two main categories: storage batteries and fuel cells. Storage batteries are suitable for pure electric vehicles, including lead-acid batteries, nickel-metal hydride batteries, sodium-sulfur batteries, secondary lithium batteries, air batteries, and ternary lithium batteries. The signs of a failing car battery are as follows: 1. Difficulty starting the car: If the car suddenly becomes difficult to start without other factors, it may be a sign that the battery is about to fail. 2. Dimming lights during idle: For example, when waiting at a red light or temporarily parked, the headlights suddenly dim. This is because the engine's charging power decreases during idle. 3. Battery fault light illuminates: When the battery fault light comes on, it reminds the owner to go to a repair shop for battery maintenance and testing. 4. Normal driving usually, but occasionally after parking and restarting, the whole car has no power: This is because when the battery life is nearing its end, the starting current is insufficient, causing an increase in battery terminal oxides, resulting in a no-power issue for the whole car.
