  2. Peukert's law - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Peukert's_law

    The effects of temperature on batteries is not included in the equation. Battery age is not considered. The Peukert exponent increases with battery age. If calculating for a low discharge rate, the equation does not account for the fact that each battery has a self discharge rate.

  3. State of charge - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/State_of_charge

    In a battery electric vehicle (BEV), the state of charge indicates the remaining energy in the battery pack. [4] It is the equivalent of a fuel gauge.. The state of charge can help to reduce electrical car's owners' anxiety when they are waiting in the line or stay at home since it will reflect the progress of charging and let owners know when it will be ready. [5]

  4. Depth of discharge - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Depth_of_discharge

    the fraction of the battery's capacity which is currently removed from the battery with regard to its (fully) charged state. For fully charged batteries, the depth of discharge is connected to the state of charge by the simple formula =. The depth of discharge then is the complement of state of charge: as one increases, the other decreases.

  5. Charge cycle - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Charge_cycle

    A "charge cycle" is not a unit of time; the length of time spent charging or discharging does not affect the number of charge cycles. [1] Each battery is affected differently by charge cycles. [2] [3] In general, number of cycles for a rechargeable battery (the cycle life) indicates how many times it can undergo the process of complete charging ...

  6. Lead–acid battery - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Lead–acid_battery

    Eventually the mixture will again reach uniform composition by diffusion, but this is a very slow process. Repeated cycles of partial charging and discharging will increase stratification of the electrolyte, reducing the capacity and performance of the battery because the lack of acid on top limits plate activation.

  7. Zinc–air battery - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Zinc–air_battery

    Charging voltage is much higher than discharge voltage, producing cycle energy efficiency as low as 50%. Providing charge and discharge functions by separate uni-functional cathodes increases cell size, weight and complexity. [6] A satisfactory electrically recharged system potentially offers low material cost and high specific energy.

  8. Alkaline battery - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Alkaline_battery

    An AA-sized alkaline battery might have an effective capacity of 3000 mAh at low drain, but at a load of 1 ampere, which is common for digital cameras, the capacity could be as little as 700 mAh. [12] The voltage of the battery declines steadily during use, so the total usable capacity depends on the cutoff voltage of the application.

  9. Electric battery - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Electric_battery

    For a rechargeable battery it may also be used for the number of charge/discharge cycles possible before the cells fail to operate satisfactorily—this is also termed "lifespan". [56] The term shelf life is used to describe how long a battery will retain its performance between manufacture and use. Available capacity of all batteries drops ...
