- JoeAltmaier 6y agoHm. There's a lot of lead, in a lead-acid battery. Must be very different.
- OnlyOneCannolo 6y agoEven if it wasn't ... If the energy density and mass density of a sodium battery are between lead-acid and lithium-ion, then an equally capable battery would weigh somewhere in-between.
- mehrdadn 6y agoFor those wondering: 0.6 grams of lithium out of 45 grams for an 18650 battery, or about 1.3% by weight.
- JoeAltmaier 6y agoThanks! I just looked that up and was going to post. Beat me to it! So it is very different - a li-ion battery anode is a tiny part of the battery. A lead-acid battery, its a much larger component.
- Ididntdothis 6y agoMakes we wonder why li-ion AA batteries weigh so much less than Nimh rechargeable. What’s the difference?
