Different types of battery for inverter?

There are several types of batteries commonly used for inverters in various applications. The choice of battery depends on factors such as the application, budget, maintenance requirements, and performance expectations. Here are some of the different types of batteries used for inverters:

Lead-Acid Batteries:

Flooded Lead-Acid (FLA) Batteries: These are the traditional and most common types of lead-acid batteries. They have removable caps to check and refill the electrolyte. They require regular maintenance and should be installed in a well-ventilated area.

Sealed Lead-Acid (SLA) Batteries: Also known as Valve-Regulated Lead-Acid (VRLA) batteries, these batteries are maintenance-free and do not require refilling of electrolyte. They come in two types: Absorbent Glass mats (AGM) and Gel batteries.

Lithium-ion Batteries:

Lithium-ion (Li-ion) Batteries: Lithium battery is gaining popularity due to their high energy density, longer lifespan, and lightweight. They have a higher upfront cost but offer better performance and reduced maintenance requirements compared to lead-acid batteries. Lithium iron phosphate (LiFePO4) batteries are a common variant used for inverters due to their safety and stability features.

Solar Battery: A solar battery, also known as a solar energy storage system or solar storage battery, is a type of battery used in conjunction with solar panels to store excess electricity generated from sunlight. Solar panels generate electricity when exposed to sunlight, but energy production is not constant throughout the day, as it depends on the weather conditions and the position of the sun.

Nickel-Cadmium (Ni-Cd) Batteries:                                                        

Ni-Cd Batteries: These batteries are known for their robustness, long life, and ability to handle high discharge and charge rates. They are commonly used in industrial applications and some specialized off-grid setups.

Nickel-Metal Hydride (Ni-MH) Batteries:

Ni-MH Batteries: These batteries have a higher energy density than Ni-Cd batteries and are environmentally friendly. However, they are less commonly used in inverters compared to other battery types.
