For lead - acid batteries, it's around 20°C - 25°C; for lithium - ion batteries, it's 15°C - 35°C; and for NiMH batteries, it's 20°C - 25°C. . Lithium-ion batteries operate and store energy within specific thermal thresholds. Here's a breakdown of their li-ion temperature range: Operating Temperature: Most Li-ion batteries function optimally between -20°C to 60°C (-4°F to 140°F) during use. Extreme temperatures can significantly affect performance, safety, and lifespan.
