Abstract
A condition estimation device for estimating condition of an electric storage device includes a voltage detector and a controller. The voltage detector is configured to detect a voltage of the electric storage device. The controller is configured to perform a distinctive point detection process to detect a distinctive point based on the voltage detected by the voltage detector, and an estimation process to estimate the condition of the electric storage device based on the distinctive point detected in the distinctive point detection process. The distinctive point is a point at which a variation in voltage per unit remaining capacity or per unit time of the electric storage device during charge or discharge is a local maximum value.
