For a given cell, is there any way one can predict the cycle life?
I see manufacturers state numbers like 3.000 or 6.000 or whatever... But is there a test one can do to predict this number?
The question also relates to the meaning of grade B; we all test the capacity of cells and are happy if it reaches a certain number. But I believe the real test is how the cell holds after 1.000ths of iteration. What is the value of a cell if it indeed has now a capacity but if it fails in a few years.
