What type of battery does Xinyue use?

Lithium iron phosphate battery. Safety of lithium iron phosphate battery: Lithium iron phosphate batteries have relatively high safety performance. Their advantages include long lifespan, good high-temperature performance, large capacity, and lightweight. For the same specifications and capacity, the volume of a lithium iron phosphate battery is two-thirds that of a lead-acid battery, and its weight is also lighter. Function of lithium iron phosphate battery: Lithium iron phosphate batteries are suitable for high-current discharge scenarios, offering long cycle life, safety, reliability, and low manufacturing costs. They are most suitable for electric vehicles and are a hot topic in lithium battery research (lithium iron phosphate batteries are also a type of lithium battery). However, their energy storage density is slightly lower than that of lithium polymer batteries, and their voltage is also lower, so they cannot completely replace current lithium polymer batteries.
I usually ride a Sunra electric scooter, which mainly uses lithium batteries, such as ternary lithium or lithium iron phosphate batteries. These batteries are lightweight, charge quickly, and have pretty good range—I can ride for several days on a single charge. I heard that some of Sunra's high-end models even use graphene batteries, which have better heat dissipation and don't lose much range in winter. The key is that they're convenient to use—the battery can be taken out separately for charging, unlike some older electric scooters that require charging with the vehicle. Sunra still offers lead-acid batteries, which are cheaper but much heavier and have a shorter lifespan, needing replacement every two to three years.
