6 FAQs about Outdoor power battery types

Are Ope batteries good for outdoor maintenance?

Here's how to power up for your outdoor maintenance needs. Most OPE batteries are rechargeable, and all offer exceptional ease of use and low maintenance. Save time and effort with no cords to worry about and no need for fuel mixing, carburetor cleaning or winterizing at season's end. Here are the main battery types you can choose between.

What are the different types of single-use batteries?

The two main types of single-use batteries are alkaline and lithium. Pros: Cheaper upfront cost than rechargeable batteries. Very low self-discharge rate (power loss when not in use) for a long shelf life. Widely available. Cons: Require disposal after fully discharged.

What are the different types of rechargeable batteries?

The two main types of rechargeable batteries are nickel-metal hydride and lithium-ion. Pros: Because they're rechargeable, they generate less waste than single-use batteries. They offer better long-term value than single-use batteries (the more you use them, the cheaper they get). Cons: More expensive upfront cost than single-use batteries.

Are lithium ion batteries a good choice?

TIP: Compared to other types, lithium-ion batteries have a longer run time between charges, making them a good choice for larger yards and gardens. Cycle life is the overall life of the battery. It represents the number of times a battery can be recharged before its performance degrades. TIP: Proper care helps optimize battery life.

What type of battery should I use?

The most commonly used battery of all is an alkaline battery (meaning it contains an alkaline electrolyte, usually potassium hydroxide). Best use: "Low-drain" devices such as LED headlamps, LED flashlights, toys, remote control devices, clocks and radios, and even moderate-drain items such as lights using incandescent bulbs.

What is a rechargeable battery?

Rechargeable Batteries: These batteries are built to be recharged over and over again, in some cases up to 500 times or more. The two main types of rechargeable batteries are nickel-metal hydride and lithium-ion. Pros: Because they're rechargeable, they generate less waste than single-use batteries.
