Are Lithium Ion batteries used for a digital camera allowed on an airplane? I am going to Florida tomorrow and I am taking my digital camera with me. My camera's battery is a Sony Type G Lithium Ion rechargeable battery. I was wondering if I could take this with me in my carry on bag. PLEASE HELP!!!

Tim replied: "Yes, there is nothing wrong with that type of battery. Your laptop batteries are lithium ion, and you can bring those on board too!"

Jane replied: "Yup, no problem. Just don't try to bring a bottle of water through the x-ray."

Charlie replied: "See site below for the info you need."

Can I use many lithium Ion batteries and send them through a controller to an electric motor? This is a complex question I know. I know little about electrical engineering but I want to build an electric bike. I could buy the same materials others have used but I'd like to use Lithium Ion Batteries. So can I connect wires from many bats to a standard controller and then to an electric motor? I assume I can, energy is energy, but what should I look out for. Has anyone tried this?

Jon K replied: "This is basically what they do for car batteries in hybrid motors, so yes, this is doable."

Kes replied: "Look out for allowable charge and discharge rates. Lithium ion batteries can explode if not properly used. Altair Nanotechnology has produced a special version that is not prone to this problem but is not commercially available in the size you need (yet)."

Has anyone used generic lithium ion batteries for their digital cameras? Im concerned that if I buy the cheaper ones they'll not last very long and be a waste of money. What have you experiences with them been?

ConcernedCitizen replied: "I prefer to use rechargeable nickel metal hydride (NiMH) batteries. I have four sets, more than enough to last all day, and I recharge them overnight."

fhotoace replied: "No. They will void the warranty on your camera. Many do not meet the specifications as set forth by camera manufacturers. I have had the discussion with Mamiya, Nikon and Canon reps and they all say the same thing; "Don't do it" NOTE on AA's: Current compact digital cameras that use AA batteries are optimized for Ni-MH rechargeable ... they are the only ones that will provide any good performance. The other thing has is you have to use good power management ... keeping the LCD off a much as possible is the first thing to do"

TomTom replied: "go to yahoo shopping try to stay with major brands"

VINTAGE MUSIC replied: "When you say lithium...remember you want the ones you recharge. The ones that do not take recharging are only a little better than regular alkalines, and not as good as NiMH rechargeable batteries. Not even close."

andyandchloe replied: "stay with brand name batteries of your camera. it will void the warranty if you use generics and something bad happens"

Pros/cons for lithium ion batteries vs. lead acid batteries. Used to power nursing laptops in hospitals.? We use wireless carts on wheels to hold our Dell D610 laptops. Someone has suggested that we use lead acid batteries to keep these laptops powered as opposed to the lithium ion batteries that we currently use. We get approx. 10 hours use out of our current lithium batteries. (with 2 on board batteries and one external lithium ion) What are the pros and cons for both battery types?

philly_blunts69 replied: "litium batts last longer and have more power per size than lead acid. also a lead acid batt is more dangorus than a lituim. go litium they maybe more pricey but you'll be better off in the long run."

rb89 replied: "sidebar: What type of nursing unit and how much plugged-in downtime can you expect? (More downtime on M/S, Tele units vs. 24/7 busy like ER). What software are you running? Are you using wifi or wired connections? What are the screensaver/battery-saver settings at?"

What cars, if any, use lithium ion batteries? I am doing a science fair project on lithium ion and lithium ion polymer batteries and their usages. Are there any cars in existence that utilize these batteries for electric or hybrid electric technology?

6feetunder replied: "Toyota will have its Prius come out with a Li ion battery next year. Chevy volt will too but that's a long time from now."

Kappa DKB replied: "GM is coming out with a new one called the Volt. Check it out They had an older one called the EV-1. See the documentay who killed the electric car. "

Dana1981, Master of Science replied: "At the moment the only one is the Tesla Roadster. But there will be several more within the next year or two. Available in California in October 2008, the Aptera typ-1e will cost about $27,000 with a top speed of 95 mph and range of 120 miles per charge. Soon thereafter Aptera will introduce the typ-1h, a plug-in hybrid version of the typ-1e with a 40-60 mile range on purely electrical energy, and a range of over 600 miles total when in electric/gas hybrid mode, for around $30,000. On a 120 mile trip, the typ-1h will get 300 miles per gallon. The shorter the trip, the higher the efficiency. Available in 2009, the ZAP Alias will cost $30,000, have a top speed of 100 mph, and a range of 100 miles per charge. Soon thereafter the ZAP-X will be available at a cost of $60,000 with a top speed of 155 mph and a range of 350 miles per charge. Available in 2009, the Miles Javlon will cost $30,000 with a top speed of 80 mph and a range of 120 miles per charge. Phoenix Motorcars will start selling their SUT to individuals in 2009. It will cost $45,000 and have a top speed of 100 mph with a range of 100+ miles per charge. The EV-1 used lead acid and NiMh batteries, not lithium ion. The plug-in Prius and Chevy Volt won't come out until 2010 at the earliest."

Is there a big difference in camera performance between Lithium Ion batteries and AA alkaline? I found a camera that i really would like to buy however it is powered by two AA batteries. I found using a LIthium Ion battery to be very convenient and am a little doubtful about the performance and battery life of a camera powered my two AA's. Please help!

Jimmy replied: "You can actually get lithium AA batteries. The benefit of Lithium batteries is that they last about 3 times as long as alkaline AA batteries and a bit longer than Rechargeable AA batteries. A personal example, I used alkaline AA's and got about 120 pics, using rechargeable, I got around 200, and with lithium, it was about 300. Lithium batteries last longer and cost more than alkaline batteries. I find the best value is rechargeable batteries. They last longer and can be used again and again after charging them up. Over the long term, they cost less than other AA's."

fhotoace replied: "There is a huge difference ... Li-ion batteries are the state of the art batteries used in all the professional DSLR cameras and all but one brand of entry level and bridge DSLR's ... for good reason. They hold their charges longer than other rechargeable batteries and will last for years (I have some that are over five years old and are still working flawlessly). The cameras that use AA batteries are optimized to use NiMH rechargeable batteries and while they can be used for a few years, they do not hold their charge over time."

testQ replied: "Using regular batteries is far more convenient that using specialized batteries. My old Fuji S5000 used 4 AA batteries, and that was a real blessing. If you get rechargable ones, there is no fuctional difference with Lithium batteries other than the power density of Li being higher. And yes -- if your battery suddenly dies in the middle of the day in Yosemite, replacement is just a trip to the covenience store away."

RastaGirl0420 replied: "Like the person stated below me you can get the Lithium batteries in the AA form. That would be your best bet considering the Lithium batteries are the best batteries when it comes to cameras in my opinion. You can get some from a place like"

Help with NP-BG1 lithium ion battery used in Sony Cyber-Shot DSC-W35? The Sony Cyber-Shot DSC-W35 uses rechargeable -BG1 lithium ion battery. I wanted to ask if we get disposable batteries (i.e. not the rechargeable batteries. Some call such batteries “use and throw”) of the identical size to be used in the camera. I can explain why I’m asking this. Suppose I’m on a trip somewhere and my battery goes kaput and I cannot recharge them. I have 3 options: 1.Keep the camera back in the case and bang my head against the wall; 2.Keep a spare charged battery; 3.Always keep a pair of disposable batteries in case of such situations. I’m in no way going to choose the first option and as far as the second is concerned I feel that it would be expensive to purchase a pack of batteries for such once in a blue moon occasions. Please help me out of this dilemma. Thanx

TomTom replied: "you can go to yahoo search get 2 more rechargeable ones and then have 3 I found rechargeable ones for peanuts"

Which is of these two options are worse for devices that use Lithium Ion batteries? Charging the batter fully, letting the battery drain to near empty then recharging them again? Or, keeping the device plugged in to a DC outlet and only removing unplugging it when necessary (leaving the house)?

Tony O replied: "charging the battery fully letting it drain to near empty then recharge keeping it at full charge or on the charger all the time actually shortens the batteries life span"
