Do polymer lithium batteries really need to be activated?

As for the issue of polymer lithium battery activation has always been controversial. Some netizens think that general lithium ion batteries don't have to activate. If the battery has been put aside for too long, it can be charged for several hours after filling the electricity. No more than 12 hours. As we all know the common sense that three times charge for 12 hours is for the original nickel cadmium battery, but not lithium ion battery because the lithium ion battery has no memory effect. Experts said: formation needs a period of time in the process of general small current charging and discharging. In order to the formation of the SEI film electrode surface, the charger of a regular user can't make it. If there really is the activation on the statement, why producers make the users finish such an important process by themselves?

As a result there is another user reflect: according to practical experience, the lithium battery need to activate, because memory effect, but if the lithium battery is not active will lead to the shortage problem of the capacity of the can also restore. No matter what digital equipment standard lithium-ion batteries, must be activated when enabled. Many users in the process of using lithium battery, no activation scientifically, to the best of the lithium battery not capacity, easy to let a person think this is wrong memory effect.

General battery activation process as follows:

Activation process one: just use lithium electricity generally have the rest of the electricity, don't charge this time. Put battery into the product normal use, until the battery is low to completely unable to boot.

Activation process two: the charge for the first time, it is best to use the original charger, and power off is better, a lot of people in order to easy to use, don't turn it off charging, so conducive to activate lithium electricity capacity. And remind everyone is under continuous charging 12 hours more than 15 hours. If during the tip has been full of, don't pull, let it keep charging status.

Activation process 3: for the first time after a full charge, if normal use to boot. To press the process to continue operating two!

Activation process four: fully discharge, fully charge (i.e., repeat process 2 and 3) repeated three times. The battery is activated successfully, can achieve the best state of capacity.

Note: the lithium battery often in factory has been activated, so don't need buyers to activate again. If the activation period suggests not to use the universal charger after reaching normal use, can need not use universal charger doesn't have to. Because the original charger is the most appropriate. The universal charger, current stability, consistent with lithium battery voltage is not necessarily, has the potential to accelerate li-ion battery aging.
