How to Recycle Lithium-ion Batteries

Due to their price, features, and performance, rechargeable batteries can be found in nearly every electronic device. The first lithium-ion battery came out in the early '80s, but it was not until the 90's when those li-ion batteries became a standard for household and professional electronics. As we previously mentioned, most of our electric vehicles, computers, smartphones, and tablets use lithium-ion batteries. Because of metals, plastics and chemicals, those batteries represent an exponential risk to the environment and human health.

How Long Before Your Battery Health Drops?

iPhone's battery doesn't degrade as much as Android and its counterparts, but its maximum battery capacity may go down over time because of charge cycles and extreme heat. While lithium-ion batteries (in most smartphones) typically come with a 100% capacity, they are expected to maintain at least 80% of their power for around 300 to 500 charge cycles.

iPhone Battery

Over time, Apple has been redesigning its iPhones, iPods, and MacBooks, but battery life didn't get any extraordinary improvement. A battery can be the most indispensable component since it powers up the entire iPhone, but what happens to those old batteries when they are about to die? While non-functional batteries don't have any reselling value, they are composed of toxic but recyclable materials. If your iPhone runs out of battery 2 or 3 times a day, it means that its battery is about to die. Your iPhones battery health may deteriorate over time, but first, check your battery's health and information.
