Standards And Guidance
Our accessibility work is informed by the Web Content Accessibility Guidelines (WCAG) published by the W3C Web Accessibility Initiative. WCAG provides testable success criteria for making web content more accessible to people with disabilities.
We use WCAG principles as a reference for design and content decisions, but this statement should not be read as a claim that every page has been independently audited or formally certified to a particular conformance level. A large website can change over time, and new content or tools may introduce issues that need follow-up.
Keyboard Navigation And Focus
Visitors should be able to reach links, buttons, form fields and disclosure controls without a mouse. The site uses visible focus outlines so keyboard users can track their position. We also avoid making hover the only way to reveal essential information.
If a control cannot be reached, traps focus, changes unexpectedly or loses a visible focus indicator, that is an accessibility barrier worth reporting. Include the page address and a short description of what happened so the issue can be reproduced.
Forms, Calculators And Error Messages
Calculator and form controls should have associated text labels rather than relying only on placeholder text. Instructions should explain expected units or ranges, and validation messages should be presented in text so users are not forced to infer errors from color alone.
Where results update dynamically, we aim to use status regions such as aria-live so assistive technologies can announce meaningful changes. Because dynamic behavior can vary across browser and screen-reader combinations, feedback about a specific workflow is especially useful.
Text, Zoom, Reflow And Visual Presentation
The site uses responsive layouts intended to adapt to smaller screens and enlarged content. Text is presented with scalable units in many components, and major sections are arranged so they can stack vertically on narrow viewports.
Color is used for visual design, but essential meaning should not depend on color alone. We also aim for readable foreground/background contrast and visible control states. If enlarged text overlaps, clips, disappears or requires two-dimensional scrolling for ordinary reading, please report the affected page and viewport condition.
Images, Icons And Non-Text Content
Decorative visual elements should be hidden from assistive technologies when they do not add meaning. Informative images should have a useful text alternative or nearby explanation that communicates the same essential information.
Some interface icons are intentionally paired with visible text so a symbol is not the only way to understand an action. When an icon is purely decorative, an empty or hidden accessible treatment is preferable to a misleading spoken label.
Headings, Links And Reading Order
We aim to use one clear page topic, descriptive section headings and link text that makes sense in context. Logical reading order matters both visually and when content is linearized by a screen reader or mobile layout.
Repeated generic link labels can make navigation harder when assistive technology presents links as a separate list. For important actions, descriptive wording is preferred where the destination or purpose is not otherwise obvious.
Known Limitations And Areas For Improvement
Not every accessibility issue can be detected from source code alone, and we do not claim that the site is free of barriers. Older pages, complex calculators, externally embedded content or third-party services may behave differently across assistive technologies.
We are particularly attentive to keyboard operation, focus visibility, label relationships, error messaging, responsive reflow, contrast, meaningful link text and the accessibility of dynamic calculator results. When a problem is confirmed, the goal is to correct the underlying component so the improvement can benefit other pages using the same pattern.
Feedback And Contact
If you have difficulty using LithiumBattery.info, we welcome specific accessibility feedback. The most useful report includes the page URL, the control or content involved, what you expected to happen, what actually happened, and—if you are comfortable sharing it—the browser, device or assistive technology being used.
Please use the Contact LithiumBattery.info page to report a barrier. Accessibility reports should be treated as actionable website feedback and reviewed alongside other correction and maintenance requests.
If a page prevents you from accessing important information, you can also ask for the information in a more accessible form through the same contact channel. We will use the details available to understand the request and determine an appropriate response.
Third-Party Content And External Links
Some pages may link to external websites, standards bodies, manufacturers or other third-party resources. We do not control the markup, accessibility support or assistive-technology behavior of external sites.
When a third-party service is essential to a site function, accessibility feedback is still useful because it helps identify whether we should change the integration, provide clearer instructions or offer an alternative path.
Ongoing Review
Accessibility work continues as the site changes. New calculators, policy updates, design changes and content revisions can affect the user experience, so accessibility checks are most useful when they are part of routine publishing rather than a one-time launch task.
This statement may be updated when our accessibility practices, site structure or known limitations materially change.
