There are many types of battery and perhaps you have heard a lot about 18650 batteries and 20700. Do you know why it is called 18650 battery? It’s simple, the 18650 battery is a lithium-ion cell classified by its 18mm x 65mm size, which is slightly larger than an AA battery. The same applies to other batteries, i.e. a 20700 battery is a 20mm x 70mm size battery.
