Primary NASA dataset description: custom battery prognostics testbed, controlled charge/discharge and temperature conditions, programmable load and supply, voltage/current/temperature sensing and data acquisition. The stated aging end criterion is 30% rated-capacity loss, from 2 Ah to 1.4 Ah; this is distinct from the potential threshold ending each discharge.

It distinguishes remaining-life prediction for one discharge from long-term aging end of life.
