✦ Synopsis
A Li-MnOz counterpart of the standard 6F22 Leclanche battery was designed in 3 different versions -paper lined, spiral wound, and layer stacked. The performance of all 3 types was tested according to the IEC discharge conditions, and the results were juxtaposed with Leclanche and zinc-air batteries of identical size and voltage. The merits and shortcomings in terms of capacity, polarization, ability to withstand continuous discharge, and technological back up are discussed. Although all 3 designs displayed superior characteristics as compared with the Leclanche batteries, optimum performance can be achieved by observing several critical requirements concerning the design, materials, and technology.
