The Lithium compound used in cellphones and laptops is known commercially as "Lithium polymer". I don't remember what's its difference to the Lithium-ion compounds used in newer electric and hybrid car batteries, but the cellphone and laptop batteries were considered less safe for automobile usage, altough they have a higher energy density.
