Polarization - The lowering of the potential of a cell or electrode from its equilibrium value caused by the passage of an electric current.
Depth of Discharge - The ratio of the quantity of electricity (usually in ampere-hours) removed from a battery to its rated capacity.
Ampere-Hour Capacity - The quantity of electricity measured in ampere-hours (Ah) which may be delivered by a cell or battery under specified conditions.
Polarity - In electricity, the condition of being positive or negative.
Safety Vent - A venting mechanism designed into a cell which activates under specific conditions of abuse to relieve internal pressure.
