If a battery is rated to have a self discharge of 10%/month, over the course of several months is that:
Vbat = V(initial) * .9 * .9 * .9 .......
(aka 90%, 81%, 73%, etc)
or
Vbat = V(initial)) - 0.1*(V(initial)) - 0.1*(V(initial)) - 0.1*(V(initial)) ........
(aka 100%, 90%, 80%, 70%, etc).
Simple question, but it makes a big difference when my product has to sit on the shelf for a long time before use. Thanks!
