What does 18650 battery mean

 

What is lithium-ion battery?

Lithium-ion battery: It is a secondary battery, which mainly depends on the movement of lithium ions between the positive and negative electrodes. In the process of charging and discharging, Li+is embedded and de-embedded between the two electrodes: during charging, Li+is de-embedded from the positive electrode and embedded into the negative electrode through the electrolyte, and the negative electrode is in a lithium-rich state; The opposite is true when discharging. The battery generally uses materials containing lithium as the electrode, which is the representative of modern high-performance battery.
