Each portable product market sector is defined, the leading companies for each sector are identified, and the market sectors are analyzed, with the inclusion of a 5-year market prediction. The following kinds of batteries are discussed:
- Rechargeable
- Nickel-cadmium (NICAD)
- Nickel-metal hydride
- Lithium (e.g., lithium-ion, lithium-polymer)
- Specialty rechargeable (e.g., lead-acid, nickel-zinc, silver-zinc, silver-cadmium)
- Non-rechargeable
- Zinc-carbon primary
- Manganese zinc alkaline
- Non-rechargeable lithium
- Specialty non-rechargeable (e.g., zinc-air, silver oxide, magnesium)
These battery power sources are also compared to two new portable power supplies: ultracapacitors and fuel cells. Again, each battery market sector is defined, the leading companies are identified, and the market is analyzed, with the inclusion of a 5-year market prediction. Finally, OEM and charging-station battery charger markets are analyzed.
Portable product, battery, and battery charger companies are identified and profiled.
