Charge the battery before it's too low!

A 2025 study has revealed that lithium-ion batteries can suffer significant surface damage during low-voltage discharges, even within traditional “safe” operating limits. Researchers found that a quasi-conversion reaction in NMC cathodes strips oxygen atoms, forming a less conductive rocksalt phase and triggering chemical reactions that raise resistance, generate gases, and shorten battery lifespan.
