The nominal capacity originates from the manufacturer’s data sheet, if available. When the data sheet is unavailable, the nominal capacity is estimated. Batemo measured the C/10 capacity by discharging the cell at an ambient temperature of 25°C from 100% with a constant current of 0.40A (0.1C) until reaching the voltage of 2.5V. The thermal boundary condition is free convection.<br>

All quantities are measurement results from the Batemo battery laboratory.<br> The continuous current is the highest current that completely discharges the cell without overheating it. Therefore, the cell is discharged from 100% state of charge (SOC) at an ambient temperature of 25°C with a constant current until a residual state of charge of 10% and either the lower voltage limit of 2.5V or 90% of the maximum surface temperature (72°C) is reached.<br> The peak current is the current that the cell can supply for 5 minutes. The cell is therefore discharged from 100% SOC at an ambient temperature of 25°C with a constant current until it reaches either the lower voltage limit of 2.5V or the maximum surface temperature of 80°C after 5 minutes. For cells that reach the maximum surface temperature, the measured current is taken directly as the peak current. For cells that do not reach the maximum surface temperature after 5 minutes because they reach the lower voltage limit first, the measured current is multiplied by a correction factor that estimates the current that would have heated the cell to the maximum surface temperature within 5 minutes.<br> The thermal boundary condition is free convection. These operating conditions may be outside the cell manufacturer’s specification.<br>
