Introduction• Commercial lithium-ion batteries in portable electronic equipment has
been used by NASA for space applications since 1999.• First battery that was certified for flight and flown for Shuttle use was the
Canon BP 927 (2.7 Ah) battery pack.• Since then, numerous portable equipment with li-ion batteries have been
certified and flown and remain on-orbit for crew usage.– Laptops (two generations with third one being worked on now)– Camcorder– Camera– PDA – 2 versions (second one being li-ion polymer cells)– Satelite Phone
• Due to expense and time, certified batteries are used with different equipment with the help of adapters or by working with the manufacturer of the equipment to build the appropriate battery compartment and connector.
• Certified and dedicated chargers are available on Shuttle and on the ISS for safe charging.

Summary and Conclusions• Charging of most Commercial-off-the-shelf batteries can be carried
out with either a dedicated charger or test equipment– Some require closure of the communication loop between battery and
charger and hence cannot be charged using test equipment /power supplies• The charge current seems to typically start dropping off before the
voltage reaches 4.2 V/cell; but there is a steady increase in voltage until the end of charge voltage is reached.
• Due to individual cell /cell bank monitoring, unbalanced cell voltage conditions reduce the current used in the charging process.
• Unbalanced cell conditions also have a limit on charge once any one cell bank reaches the safe voltage limit (~ 4.3 V)
• COTS batteries should be charged only with their dedicated COTS chargers
