Low-Earth-Orbit and Geosynchronous-Earth-Orbit Testing of 80 Ah Batteries under Real-Time ProfilesTo date the LEO battery has completed 5000 nominal cycles.The EODV is trending down by 50mV per 1000 cycles. To date the GEO battery has completed 2 nominal shadow periods and currently in sunlight period. Batteries testing after one year looks encouraging for aerospace application. There are no discrepancies between the current data and extensive testing conducted at Saft over the past 5 years.
