Abstract
A process of reconditioning a lithium-ion cell is provided that unexpectedly improves cell capacity, reduces cold temperature impedance and increases cold cranking amps. The process involves a reconditioning step of holding a cell at a sub-discharge voltage for a recovery time. The sub-discharge voltage is 1.0V or less in many embodiments, optionally 0.0V. Holding this sub-discharge voltage for a recovery time of several hours will result in recovery of lost capacity that is in excess of that explainable by recovery of ions transferred to an anode overhang.
