How do you calibrate a battery?

Several new "smart" Lithium rechargeables (typically used in computers) must be "calibrated". This allows the microprocessor included in the battery to learn its characteristics. To do this typically requires fully charging the battery, then almost fully discharging the battery, then letting the discharged battery sit several hours, then recharging it. It is recommended you do it once every couple months. You can do it yourself with the computer, but I don't recommend this. Spend the $100 to $150 for a custom battery charger/calibrator, it saves much frustration and may prevent destroying a battery.

What is charge and complete discharge cycling of a battery?

Charge and complete discharge cycling of a battery refers to the process of fully charging the battery to its maximum capacity and then discharging it until it reaches a specified minimum voltage. This cycle is crucial for evaluating a battery's performance, capacity, and lifespan. Regularly performing this cycle helps maintain battery health and can also help calibrate battery management systems for accurate state-of-charge readings. However, excessive cycling can lead to reduced battery life due to wear and material degradation.
