SHENZHEN, China – In the rapidly evolving landscape of fleet management, asset security, and personal vehicle safety, the Vehicle GPS Tracker has become an indispensable tool. These compact devices provide real-time location data, geofencing alerts, and critical diagnostic information. However, their reliability is fundamentally dictated by one core component: the battery. While the software and GPS […]
In the fast-evolving world of agricultural technology, power solutions are becoming just as critical as robotics and AI themselves. Farmers demand energy systems that are safe, durable, and capable of withstanding harsh outdoor conditions. Himax, a leading innovator in custom lithium battery pack solutions, has introduced a breakthrough product — a 36V 100Ah PVC pack […]
In the rapidly evolving world of renewable energy, solar street lighting is emerging as a cost-effective, eco-friendly, and sustainable alternative to traditional street lights. At the core of this technology lies the choice of battery — the crucial component that stores solar energy for use during the night. Over the past decade, lithium iron phosphate […]
1. What is Charge Retention? Charge retention refers to a battery’s ability to retain its stored electrical energy over time when not in use. This is inversely related to the self-discharge rate, which measures the rate at which a battery loses capacity on its own, without any load. For LiPO batteries, charge retention is one of their strengths […]

1. Li-ion (Lithium-ion) Typically refers to cylindrical (e.g., 18650 li-ion) or prismatic cells using NMC or NCA chemistry. ✅ Advantages: High energy density → longer run time for given size/weight. Relatively long cycle life (500–1000+ cycles). Low self-discharge (~1–2% per month). Widely available and mature technology. Stable form factor (especially cylindrical 18650/21700 cells). ❌ Disadvantages: Thermal runaway risk if punctured or […]
Lithium iron phosphate batteries (LiFePO4 or LFP batteries) are a type of lithium-ion battery known for their long cycle life, thermal stability, and safety. Here are the key materials used in lithium iron phosphate batteries 1. Cathode (Positive Electrode) Composition: Chemical Formula: LiFePO₄ Structure: Olivine-type crystal structure Elements: Lithium (Li), Iron (Fe), Phosphorus (P), Oxygen (O) Key Properties: […]
As cities around the world strive to become smarter, greener, and more sustainable, the demand for reliable, clean energy solutions continues to rise. Urban planners and local governments are increasingly turning to renewable technologies to meet environmental targets while enhancing public services. At the heart of this transformation is energy storage — and Shenzhen Himax […]
