How to Tell if a Battery is Low Self-Discharge: Key Signs and Importance
To tell if a battery is low self-discharge, measure its open circuit voltage (Voc) over time. Low self-discharge batteries keep their charge longer. For example, lead-acid batteries lose around 5% of their charge each month, while lithium-ion batteries lose much less, contributing to a greater battery lifespan and shelf life. Recognizing low self-discharge batteries is … Read more
