We see from your search that you're looking for information on the term "Lithium-ion Battery",
and we have a large number of manufacturers' news releases and technical articles here on Engineeringtalk which will be of interest.
Let me be your guide.
Start with
the news release Portable vibration analyser keeps costs down from
Datastick Systems, which we summarised at the time by saying "The iPAQ supplies the computing power and 128Mbyte of data storage, while the Datastick VSA hardware module supplies the sensor power, Datastick electronics and interface".
A couple of weeks before,
we featured the news release Batteries chosen for vehicle prototypes from
Saft Batteries: "SAIC's demonstration fleet is helping to usher in a new age of extremely fuel-efficient and environmentally friendly, urban transportation in the People's Republic of China".
In November 2007, we covered the news from Ricardo
- take a look at Fuel efficiency is key to combat climate change
which says: "High-fuel-efficiency and low-CO2 technologies being developed by Ricardo address the problems of climate change".
Take a look also at the news release from Ricardo, Project targets cost of automotive batteries,
as well as Electric vans make deliveries in the US from Saft Batteries,
and Readers identify 1D and 2D codes from Siemens Automation and Drives.
