OEM (original contract manufacturer) refers to battery manufacturers who have existing battery product designs. Customers may make slight modifications to the brand, color, and packaging, and ultimately sell under their own brand name.
ODM(Original Design Manufacturer) is also referred to as private labeling or white label products. ODM batteries refer to batteries designed and produced by manufacturers according to their original specifications. For example, a battery company wants to sell a new type of battery pack, and they list requirements to the manufacturer, such as specific battery requirements, system voltage, system capacity, power range, system load, series parallel mode, maximum size, and packaging method, but they do not design patterns. So manufacturers need to design and produce battery packs according to the requirements of the battery company.
In summary:
OEM batteries="produce batteries"
ODM batteries="design batteries+produce batteries"
