## Caveats
These battery models predict 'expected life', that is, battery life under nominal conditions. Many types of battery failure will not be predicted by these models:
- Overcharge or overdischarge
- Impact of physical damage, vibration, or humidity
- Operating outside of manufacturer performance and environmental limits, such as voltage, temperature, and charge/discharge rate limits
- Pack performance loss due to cell-to-cell inbalance
Aging models are generally trained on a limited amount of data, that is, there is not enough information to estimate cell-to-cell variability in degradation rates.
Battery 'warranty life' is generally much more conservative than 'expected life'.
