How Many Cycles Can I Expect from My Battery?
Why it is so difficult to answer this simple question: "How many Cycles can I expect from my battery?"
There are many factors involved in predicting the cycle life of a battery pack. Cell manufactures usually only provide cycle life under very narrow defined conditions.
However, as you may know, rarely are those conditions encountered in real applications of batteries.
