Abstract

A discharge system includes: a secondary battery pack; a discharge device; and an application software running on a personal computer connected to the discharge device. The application software receives total battery voltage information, temperature information, and over-discharge information of the secondary battery pack through the discharge device, determines deterioration of the secondary battery pack based on the informations, and displays results of the determination. Further, the application software instructs the discharge device to terminate the discharge when the temperature in the pack exceeds a predetermined value and/or an over-discharge is detected.
