Battery za lithium-ion zaasooka kukozesebwa mu bikozesebwa mu kukola omutima. Omuwendo gwazo ogwa wansi ennyo ogwa self-discharge rate ne voltage y’okufulumya mpolampola bisobozesa pacemakers eziteekeddwamu okukola okumala ebbanga eddene nga teziddamu kucaajinga. Battery za lithium-ion zitera okuba ne vvulovumenti ey’erinnya esukka 3.0 volts, ekizifuula ezisaanira ennyo ng’ensibuko z’amaanyi eri integrated circuits. Ate bbaatule za manganese dioxide zikozesebwa nnyo mu kalkulayiza, kkamera za digito, ne mu ssaawa.
Okukola bbaatule ezikola obulungi n’okusingawo-, abanoonyereza basomye ku bintu eby’enjawulo, ekivuddemu ebintu ebitabangawo.
Mu 1992, Sony yakola bulungi bbaatule ya lithium-ion. Enkola yaayo ey’omugaso ekendeezezza nnyo ku buzito n’obunene bw’ebyuma eby’amasannyalaze ebikwatibwako ng’amasimu, laptop, ne calculator.
