1.5 Ah/10 = 150 mA (A cell's capacity is not the same at all discharge rates and usually increases with decreasing rate.)
Battery or Pack - Two or more electrochemical cells electrically interconnected in an appropriate series/parallel arrangement to provide the required operating voltage and current levels. Under common usage, the term "battery" is often also applied to a single cell.
Separator - An ionic permeable electronically nonconductive spacer or material which prevents electronic contact between electrodes of opposite polarity in the same cell.
Electrolyte - The medium which provides the ion transport mechanism between the positive and negative electrodes of a cell.
Hazardous Waste - Waste which is classified as "hazardous" (i.e., potentially harmful to the environment) by the government.
Specific Energy - The ratio of the energy output of a cell or battery to its weight (Wh/kg). This term is used interchangeably with gravimetric energy density.
Charge - The conversion of electrical energy, provided in the form of electrical current from an external source, to restore the chemical energy in a cell or battery.
