Abstract

A battery capacity testing interface (BCTI) module may be configured to test a capacity of a battery unit, such as an individual battery or a string of batteries. The BCTI module may instruct a battery unit under test to release a controlled electrical discharge that is measured by the BCTI module. Once determined, battery capacity can provide insight into the battery life of the battery, as well as the ability of the battery to deliver a specified amount of current at a constant rate to a specified end voltage for a specified time. The BCTI module may operate with various types of battery monitors and may be employed to test various types of batteries, including lead-acid batteries and lithium-ion batteries.
