These are typically done by having you use your phone for an amount of time (usually called a usage period) and then comparing how much power it has left to see if it can be recharged. This is different from a true “capacity” test, which looks at how many times a cell can be charged and still retain its charge. True capacity tests usually require expensive equipment that only a few companies have. Voltage tests A very important test for any new battery is to determine its voltage limit. This is done by testing the battery at one-half of its capacity and then seeing how long you can use it before it stops holding a charge. The longer you can use the battery, the higher its voltage limit will be! It is prudent to do this test initially as batteries lose their hold over time due to usage. Current tests Many companies have their...
