Temperatures are rising – how much temperature can an electric car battery take?

  Not only are the winters getting milder, but the summers, in particular, are also getting hotter on average from year to year. This not only affects flora and fauna but can also affect e-cars - especially their lithium-ion batteries. If these batteries are exposed to very high temperatures, damage can occur in the energy cell. For example, it is possible for the chemical bonds within the lithium-ion battery to break down. This can lead to irreparable damage. But don't worry - you can extend the life of a battery with simple tips and tricks. In summer, in particular, it is important, for example, to park the e-car in a shady place if possible. What is the ideal battery temperature for an electric vehicle? The chemical elements in a lithium-ion battery for electric cars are the eponymous lithium, either nickel or cobalt, plus graphite, copper, and aluminum. This mixture of chemical components has a so-called sweet spot. This point marks the physical circumstances under which th...

Tips for proper battery care

Image
  Modern cars are becoming more and more reliable and powerful, but at the same time, the number of electrical consumers in cars is growing. Up until the 1980s, a flat tire or a mechanical defect often caused a breakdown. In recent years, however, the car battery has overtaken other causes of breakdowns as the cause of involuntary stops. No matter which starter battery is used, the battery's state of charge should always be kept in mind to maintain the highest possible charge capacity for a long time. Reliable and sufficient charging of the battery can significantly extend the battery's life. If the vehicle is parked for longer or logged off in winter, a drop in battery voltage and harmful deep discharge can avoid with a suitable charger. Good chargers recognize the battery's capacity and have automatic charging current control. If a vehicle is only used sporadically, charging every two months maintains the battery's performance and thus extends its service life. Car ...
