The ampere‐hours removed from a fully charged cell or batteryTwo or more electrochemical cells are enclosed in a container..., expressed as a percentage of rated capacity. For example, the removal of 25 ampere‐hours from a fully charged 100 ampere‐hours‐rated cell results in a 25% depth of discharge. Under certain conditions, such as discharge rates lower than that used to rate the cell, depth of discharge can exceed 100%.
