Can a Lithium Electric Vehicle Switch to Lead-Acid Batteries?
1 Answers
Lithium electric vehicles can switch to lead-acid batteries. The advantages and disadvantages of lead-acid batteries are as follows: Advantages: Lead-acid batteries are sealed batteries, which are less prone to leakage during use, have high safety performance, and are repairable. The stability of lead-acid batteries is excellent, and even during prolonged charging, issues such as explosions will not occur, demonstrating their high safety performance. Disadvantages: Large size and heavy weight. Due to the manufacturing process of lead-acid batteries, increasing their capacity requires larger volume, which also results in heavier weight, making them inconvenient to move. Short lifespan. Lead-acid batteries have about 300-350 charge-discharge cycles and typically last 2-3 years under normal use. Environmental pollution. Although lead-acid batteries no longer use cadmium metal, they still cause pollution to the environment.
