Technical notes and buying guidance on lithium-ion cells, battery packs and energy storage.

What is published here

Three kinds of note, all written against documents rather than opinion: what has been added to the catalogue and filed against it, how specifications are sourced and what stays unverified, and how to read the figures on a cell data sheet.

Catalogue & documentation

Models as they are added, and the manufacturer data sheets, UN38.3 summaries, IEC and UL documents filed against them. Each entry names the document and its version.

Sourcing & compliance

Where the numbers on this site come from, why some models stay marked pending, and what to ask a supplier before committing a design.

Technical notes

How to read a data sheet: discharge ratings and their temperature cut-off, impedance as specified, cycle-life end points, and matching cells before welding.

Nothing here is a product announcement or a market claim. Where a manufacturer has not published a figure, the note says so instead of filling the gap with an estimate.
