Verve Oval Lithium-Ion Battery LED Mirror

Lithium-ion batteries offer several key benefits over AA battery-powered mirrors, including:

Higher energy density: Lithium-ion batteries can store more energy in a smaller and lighter package, providing longer usage times without needing frequent replacements.

Rechargeable convenience: Unlike AA batteries, which need to be regularly replaced, lithium-ion batteries are rechargeable, saving on the cost and hassle of purchasing new batteries.

Environmental impact: Using a rechargeable lithium-ion battery reduces waste, as it eliminates the need for disposable AA batteries, which can harm the environment when disposed of properly.

Consistent performance: Lithium-ion batteries maintain a more consistent voltage level throughout their discharge cycle, ensuring the mirror’s LED lights remain bright and stable, unlike AA batteries which can dim as they lose power.

To prolong the life of a lithium-ion battery, consider the following tips:

Avoid extreme temperatures: Keep the battery away from excessive heat and cold, as these conditions can reduce its lifespan.

Charge regularly: Rather than letting the battery drain completely, try to keep it charged between 20% and 80%.

Use the right charger: Always use the USB-C charger that came with the battery.

Lithium-ion batteries are safe when used and handled properly. Our lithium-ion batteries used are IP44 rated, which means they are protected against water splashes from any direction and are safe for use in bathroom zones 2 and above. This rating ensures that the battery can withstand the humid and potentially wet conditions typical of bathrooms.

Yes, lithium-ion batteries can and should be recycled. They contain valuable materials like lithium, cobalt, and nickel, which can be recovered and reused. Additionally, recycling helps prevent environmental contamination from harmful substances. Many electronics retailers and recycling centres accept used lithium-ion batteries. It's important to dispose of them properly rather than throwing them in the general waste, as improper disposal can be hazardous.
