Lithium polymer batteries are preferred to other batteries because these are usually the rechargeable ones. That makes them better for the environment.
If yo uare tired of paying the high prices for batteries you may be wondering which companies sell rechargeable batteries. Rayovac, Duracell, and Energizer all sell rechargeable batteries.
Lipo batteries are lithium polymer batteries. What makes them special from normal batteries is the fact that you can recharge these batteries so they last forever.
Lithium ion batteries are supposed to last longer than nickel batteries. They do not lose charge for up to 10 years in their packaging, and they last longer while in use as well.
Lithium batteries have a higher energy density, meaning they can store more energy in a smaller and lighter package compared to other types of batteries. They also have a longer lifespan and can withstand a higher number of charge cycles before needing to be replaced. Additionally, lithium batteries charge faster and have a lower self-discharge rate, making them more convenient for daily use.
Careful Answer: SOMETIMES. But ALWAYS check the label of the lithium battery in question to make sure it is rated for "1.5v" before attempting to use it as a replacement for an alkaline battery. Explanation: Alkaline primary batteries have a nominal voltage of 1.5v per cell. Lithium primary ("primary"=disposable) batteries USUALLY have a nominal voltage of "3v" per cell. There are some Lithium primary cells, AA's for example, that have a nominal voltage of 1.5v per cell which makes them a suitable replacement for alkaline batteries. To complicate matters, however, there are rechargeable lithium-ion cells in the AA format which have a nominal voltage of 3.6v per cell, and more commonly there are "Lithium Phosphate" AA's which have a nominal voltage of 3.2v or 3.3v per cell. Using either of these as a replacement for alkaline batteries would be potentially destructive for both the batteries and the device you install them in.

Lithium batteries are a type of rechargeable battery used commonly in consumer electronics. Among the many advantages, lithium batteries come in a wide range of sizes and shapes, are lightweight, no memory effect, provide higher power at lower voltages, and have lower self-discharge rates. The disadvantages of lithium batteries include a short life, not able to endure as much as other batteries, and have a higher internal resistance. They are also generally not as safe as other battery types.
Interstate is a battery company making their own batteries since 1950.
The lithium battery tends to have a longer-life, which makes it a good choice for critical devices. This battery could be well used in a clock or remote control. It might outlast children's toys, so might not be worth the price for those.
Lithium chloride is made by reacting lithium hydroxide or lithium carbonate with hydrochloric acid. The reaction forms lithium chloride and water. The compound is commonly used in a variety of industrial applications, such as in lithium batteries and air conditioning systems.
