RECYCLING BATTERIES
Recycling Batteries
The Rechargeable Battery Recycling Corporation, or RBRC, is an international, non-profit public service organization created in 1994 by the Rechargeable Power Industry. RBRC was created to educate the public about the benefit of recycling Nickel-Cadmium (Ni-Cd) rechargeable batteries found in many consumer products such as cellular phones and cordless power tools.
The Rechargeable Battery Recycling Corporation (RBRC) recycles the following portable rechargeable battery chemistries:
Nickel Cadmium (Ni-Cd)
Nickel Metal Hydride (Ni-MH)
Lithium Ion (Li-ion)
Small Sealed Lead (Pb)*
* weighing less than 2 lbs./1 kg.
These batteries are commonly found in cordless power tools, cellular and cordless phones, laptop computers, camcorders, digital cameras, and remote control toys.
RBRC's nationwide public education campaign and battery recycling program Charge Up to Recycle! is the product of the Industry's desire to conserve natural resources and prevent Ni-Cd batteries from entering the solid waste stream. The Program has various recycling plans for communities, retailers, businesses and public agencies.
Charge Up to Recycle! is funded through the licensing of RBRC's Battery Recycling Seal to the Rechargeable Power Industry. Consumers can support those companies who support the environment by shopping for the Seal when purchasing Ni-Cd batteries and battery-powered products.
Should you have any questions, please feel free to contact RBRC at 1-800-8-BATTERY or visit http://www.rbrc.com/ for more information.

battery considerations
Specification Checklist
As a product is designed, the battery specifications should account for the following:
VOLTAGE
It is important to know the nominal voltage, and the minimum and maximum voltage for the application. As an example, a 7.2 volt nominal nickel metal hydride pack will vary from 6.0 volts in a fully discharged state to 9.6 volts at the end of charge.
DISTARGE CURRENT
Average and maximum discharge currents are needed to specify the proper battery. Most often, the average current determines how large the battery must be to operate the device for a given amount of time. But in some cases there are intermittent high loads, and the maximum current requires a larger battery for the device to operate at all. The area under the discharge curve detirmines the amphour capacity needed.
CYCLE LIFE
With rechargeable batteries, the number of charges and discharges required over the life of the battery will help determine the ideal chemistry and capacity.
SERVICE LIFE
The full operating conditions must be analyzed to select the best chemistry for the application.
COST
A more expensive battery can sometimes pay for itself several times over in the form of reduced replacement costs and/or better performance.
CHARGING An engineered charger will often pay for itself in increased performance and reduced replacement costs.
SELF DISCHARGE How quickly a cell will lose its energy while sitting on the shelf. Note that higher temperatures will significantly reduce the shelf life.
Primary Batteries:
Carbon . . . . . . 2.5 years
Alkaline . . . . . 5 years
Lithium . . . . . . 10+ years
Zinc Air . . . . 5+ years
Rechargeable batteries:
Lead acid . . . . 6 months between "top off charges"
NiCds . . . . . . . 1 year between charges
NiMH . . . . . . . 1 year between charges
Lithium . . . . . . 1 year between charges
Weight & Dimension
Cells of various chemistries are made in a wide variety of sizes, and custom battery packs offer even more flexibility.
Temperature
Low temperatures compromise performance, while high temperatures dramatically reduce the life of cells.
