Different Battery Chemistries

Great points you make here! (Pity they aren’t in the ‘correct’ category but it’s the nature of these forums)
I concur fully with the time and energy it takes to get to grips with a technology. And it can be done!
The learning is never ending however.
I have recently tried to understand the NMH battery technology. It confounded me that one can’t measure the charge of a cell other than guesswork or when it starts heating up. That doesn’t mean it’s inferior and for safe charging and using in portable devices they have their place.
However the moving target of Li-ion batteries is a bigger challenge…
e.g. why do you opt for LiFePo? Why not Li-Po (or any other type)?
