Abstract :
The authors report on practical ambient temperature rechargeable lithium cells and batteries using V2O5. V2 O5 has interesting characteristics as a positive for lithium rechargeable cells. The material can be used to a 2.8 V discharge cutoff (upper plateau) or to 2 V. The development of practical D size cells for both uses is discussed, and capacity retention date and cycle life are presented. A modified form of V2O5 is discussed with respect to cell design, cell performance, and the particular load application. The optimization of Li/V2O5 cells using the upper plateaux is also considered
