Capacity - The total number of ampere-hours or watt-hours that can be withdrawn from a fully charged cell or battery under specified conditions of discharge.
Constant Current Discharge - A battery discharge regime whereby the current drawn during the discharge remains constant.
Alloy - A mixture of several other metals or a metal and a non-metal.
Voltage Depression - An abnormal drop in voltage below expected values during the discharge of a battery.
Forced Discharge - Discharging a cell in a battery, by the other cells or an external power source, below zero volts into voltage reversal.
Positive Temperature Coefficient (PTC) - A thermally reactive device which becomes highly resistive at a specific temperature or current.
Power Surge - Voltage above 110% of rated RMS voltage for one or more cycles.
