Description

A lithium polymer battery abbreviated as LiPo is a rechargeable battery that, in the case of true LiPo, uses solid polymer for the electrolyte and lithium for one of the electrodes. A LiPo battery offers the following advantages;
1. I has high specific energy compared to other lithium batteries
2. It is light in weight and compact in size
3. If offers high capacity hence can be used to hold more power
4. It is safe from explosion, unlike Li-ion battery
5. It does not lose its charging capacity as fast as Li-ion battery
6. Its charging time is short

BCT sells the battery at 25 Ksh per Watt Hour. A 1kWh battery would cost 25,000 Ksh
