Case Study: Real World Battery Failure Prediction
Batteries have been tested for performance for many years. The need for rigorous performance testing accelerated most rapidly in recent years due to technological innovation of mechanical, electrical, and chemical improvements. Battery users are challenged today, as they have been for many years, to measure and understand battery health and performance.

The Impact of New Lithium Battery Transport Rules
New U.S. rules for transporting lithium batteries became official in March, further prohibiting the transport of lithium-ion cells or batteries on aircraft and adding additional marking and labeling requirements for lithium battery shipments transported by road, rail, and air.
