FAQ

Virtually everything.

Both Lithium Ion and Lithium Polymer batteries use a carbon anode and a lithium cobalt oxide cathode. They each may have a similarly rated capacity of, say, 4000 mAH (as in IPT batteries). But the similarities end there.

They key differences between Lithium Ion and Lithium Polymer batteries include run time and cycle life. Lithium Polymer provides 3 to 4x longer run time and 3x the cycle life of Lithium Ion batteries. Lithium Ion batteries typically start with up to 12 hours of talk time, but with use are quickly reduced to 8 hours or less. IPT Lithium Polymer batteries have guaranteed run times of 24 and 27 hours – and our customers report more than 35+ hours of talk time.

Lithium Ion batteries have a published cycle life of 300-400 cycles. IPT Lithium Polymer batteries provide 900 cycles. Guaranteed. Plus IPT Lithium Polymer batteries are priced similar to OEM Lithium Ion batteries, creating an extraordinary customer value proposition.
