>Is there a European standard for Li-ion batteries? >Is there a battery directive? If yes, what standards is applicable? >CE mark required? -------------- As far as I know, the relevant EU directive is 98/101/EC, 22 December 1998, which adapts 91/157/EEC on batteries and accumulators. This only relates to the chemicals used in the battery.
I asked Moltech Power Systems (Energizer) what directives applied to EU, and got the reply attached below. Mike Mertinooke ------------------ >Michael: >Are you joking with this response?
