Overview

This HTS category, 8507, encompasses a broad range of electric storage batteries and their essential components. It covers devices designed to store electrical energy and release it when needed, including but not limited to lead-acid, nickel-cadmium, nickel-metal hydride, and lithium-ion batteries. The classification also extends to separators specifically designed for use within these batteries, irrespective of their shape, and any individual parts that constitute these storage units.

While this chapter (85) broadly deals with electrical machinery and equipment, 8507 specifically isolates the function of electrical energy storage through batteries. It is distinct from other categories within Chapter 85 that might involve the generation or use of electricity but not its storage in a rechargeable or replaceable unit. For instance, it differentiates from power supplies or electrical circuits by focusing solely on the battery technology itself.

Within this category, several subcategories are defined to provide for more granular classification based on the battery's chemical composition and intended use. These subdivisions include specific classifications for lead-acid batteries (further distinguished by their application for starting piston engines), nickel-cadmium, nickel-metal hydride, and lithium-ion batteries, reflecting the significant technological advancements and varying market applications of different battery chemistries. Additionally, a separate subdivision addresses "other storage batteries" for types not explicitly listed, and a dedicated section covers "parts" of storage batteries, ensuring comprehensive coverage of all related goods.
