Explaining C-Rate Impact on Battery Cycle Life
C-rate testing measures how fast a battery charges or discharges. Higher rates increase heat and stress, which raises the degradation rate. Buyers must match test
Learn how cycle life is measured and how to interpret test data to predict durability under real operating conditions.

C-rate testing measures how fast a battery charges or discharges. Higher rates increase heat and stress, which raises the degradation rate. Buyers must match test

Use the number of cycles to a defined state of charge, apply derating factors for temperature and depth of discharge, and convert lab results into a realistic field life
