Abstract

A method for monitoring battery degradation including receiving, from a pressure sensor, a first pressure value associated with a battery pack, comparing the first pressure reading to a first pressure threshold value and if the first pressure reading is greater than the first pressure threshold value, applying a first battery discharge pulse to the battery pack. The method further includes calculating a first internal resistance value of the battery pack in response to the first battery discharge pulse, comparing the first internal resistance value to an initial internal resistance value, and transmitting an alert to an electronic device if the first internal resistance value exceeds the initial internal resistance value.
