What is Difference Between LiFePO4&LiCoO2 Battery for Car Jump Starter?

2017-09-27

When end users read this topic, they will ask what LiFePO4 Battery is and what LiCo2 Battery is. so let's figure out what you are wondering about.

LiFePO4 battery is a short name of Lithium iron phosphate battery, also called "LFP"(lithium ferric phosphate). LiCoO2 battery is lithium cobalt oxide battery.  They are two types of rechargeable batteries. LiFePO4 cell has higher discharging current, non exposure, longer life cycle time and inherently safer. But LiCoO2 has better energy density.

In the chart, you will see the obvious comparison between LiFePO4 & LiCo2 Battery, when they are used in car jump starter.


Attention: the same size of housing to hold battery.

from the chart, in the same housing, LiCoO2 has higher capacity volume, small size and better jump starting performance. In other word, if you require one LiCoO2 15000 mAh jump starter and one LiFePO4 15000mAh jump starter, you will get a bigger size of LiFePO4 15000mAh jump starter.

Although LiFePO4 is much safer than LiCoO2, we innovate intelligent jump cable with 8 protection function to guarantee the safety.

Therefore, if your target customers are drivers or end users, you can recommend LiCoO2 cell jump starter as it is portable and safe.  If your clients are professional rescue tool who will use the jump starter many times everyday, you can advise them to choose LiFePO4, because of its longer lifetime and safety.

The last:No.
