Lithium supercapacitors achieve the best balance among energy density, power density, and cycle life, with leakage current as low as 2-5µA (72h measured, 1~2 orders of magnitude lower than EDLC at comparable capacitance), plus microamp-level charging support — the ideal choice for micro-energy scenarios
Data sources: LIC leakage from multiple manufacturers' 72h datasheet values; EDLC from industry datasheets; CR coin cell self-discharge ~1%/yr; Li-ion self-discharge ~3%/mo (LIR2032 typical)
