Abstract: Li-metal battery with a pressure chamber to allow uniform pressure on a battery. The pressure chamber is supported by metal plates (such as pressure equalization plate) used to give uniform pressure to the battery. The pressure chamber may include pressured gas, elastic material, spring plate, etc. The outer skin of the pressure chamber is free to bow, restrained at its edges by (metal) skin, but still exerts a uniform pressure on the plate that is compressing the battery cell. The pressure chamber gives uniform pressure to battery, which is used to enable high-energy density battery with, for example, 20% more battery life.
