ABSTRACT:
A method (200) of estimating existing and/or remaining life cycles of a battery pack (102) having an internal battery cell (104) and battery pack circuitry (110) is based on determining an impedance value of the internal battery cell (Zcell) (104), measuring the battery pack temperature (212), compensating the internal battery cell impedance based on the temperature (218), and estimating the remaining battery life based on the compensated internal battery cell impedance (220). The estimated life cycle value is then communicated to a user through either a charger or radio (112).
