Cobalt can make up to 20% of the weight of the cathode in lithium ion EV batteries1. EV batteries can have up to 20 kg of Co in each 100 kilowatt-hour (kWh) pack1. Cobalt accounted for a 55 percent share of the composition of lithium cobalt oxide batteries (LCO), also known as lithium cobaltate or lithium-ion-cobalt batteries, as of 20172.

A 12V lithium battery fully charged to 100% will hold voltage around 13.3V-13.4V1. A fully charged 12-volt battery should show a reading of 12.8 maximum2. A fully charged 12V lithium iron phosphate battery should read between 13.4 Volts and 13.6 Volts at rest3. The voltage of a 12 volt lithium battery pack fully charged is 14.6 volt4. The charging voltage for a 12V LiFePO4 battery is 14.2-14.6V, with a float voltage of 13.6V (or disabled)5.

Once charged, disconnect the charger and let the battery rest for about two hours. This allows it to cool down and stabilize. Then, connect your battery to a device that will steadily drain it, like a light bulb. Confirm the device’s power requirement matches your battery’s rating to avoid potential hazards.

It’s a common misunderstanding that lithium-ion batteries for data center and UPS applications are prohibited in some large cities such as San Diego and New York City. The current laws permit stationary storage battery systems, which applies to UPS, provided they are UL listed and meet the applicable sections of the NFPA fire codes.

Lithium-ion batteries are not yet considered fully "environmentally friendly," but they have advantages over fossil fuels. While they facilitate renewable energy and produce fewer carbon emissions, the process of obtaining lithium through mining is destructive to the environment12. However, they can store energy from renewable sources and support the transition to a cleaner energy grid3.
