The term IMR battery indicates a Lithium-Ion Manganese rechargeable battery, but these batteries also go by other names such as Lithium Manganese, LMO, and Li-Mn batteries. Unlike most other lithium batteries that use Lithium Cobalt (LiCo) as the positive electrode host material, this particular type of battery uses Manganese oxide (LiMn2O4) in its chemical composition. The letters IMR refer to the particular type of negative electrode host material (anode), positive electrode host material (cathode), and round shape of the battery.
Demonfire IMR batteries are inherently safer to use than their Lithium Ion counterparts that require a protection circuit because the LiMn2O4 used in our battery cathodes significantly lowers the possibility of overcharging.
Demonfire IMR batteries have a better drain rate than Lithium Ion cells due to the crystal structure of LiMn2O4 (Lithium Manganese Oxide) used in the chemical makeup of our cells. This property allows for rapid diffusion of Li+ through LiMn2O4 particles, resulting in increased performance.
IMR batteries typically have a lower capacity (mAh) than Lithium Ion (LiCoO2) cells due to possessing a lower crystalline density. Interestingly enough however, this does not affect an IMR battery's ability to perform just as well as LiCoO2 batteries in most cases.
⚠ WARNING: Improper usage or handling of lithium-ion (Li-Ion) batteries may result in explosions or fires which may cause injury or death. Buyers must read and heed all safety warnings, precautions, and safety resources before buying and using lithium-ion batteries.
