BATTERY TEST ON BATTERY #13 (MY PSYCHO BATTERY)

Watt hours = 639.6

Amp hours = 13.74

Odometer = 10,900 km.

Battery #13 is my worst battery - at least it was. It has (had?) a bad cell which had premature voltage sag (and none of us wants premature voltage sag). This caused the BMS to shut down the battery and caused the bike to stall on acceleration from a standing start. Today, there was no problem. Why is this?

I can't answer this definitively but I will tell you this: even when batteries are not in use there is electrical activity going on. I have not used #13 for a year now. I have kept in indoors and kept its storage charge at a steady 85%. Somehow, during this extended interval of non-use its molecules have rearranged themselves so as to "cure" the premature voltage sag. Pure speculation on my part, though.
