Product Overview

The Battery Pack Testing & Characterization Lab from Decibels Lab is designed for industry-grade validation of battery packs, enabling evaluation of performance, safety, and reliability under real-world operating conditions. The platform supports different battery pack configurations and chemistries while allowing testing with application-specific load profiles.

It enables automated charge-discharge cycling, capacity measurement, cycle life testing, and aging analysis to study degradation and capacity fade over time. Realistic usage patterns can be replicated to generate lifecycle data and support performance benchmarking.

The platform provides a reliable solution for battery pack validation and data-driven performance analysis, supporting product development and quality assurance by helping teams identify performance trends and validate design targets.


The setup enables engineers and researchers to:

  • Perform charge and discharge testing on battery packs
  • Measure capacity, voltage, current, time, and energy performance
  • Conduct long-term aging and cycle life studies
  • Analyze capacity fade and power degradation trends
  • Evaluate pack performance under different load profiles
  • Generate data for validation, modelling, and optimization
  • Configure flexible test profiles using CC, CV, CC-CV, CP, and pulse testing
  • Automate testing by loading pre-planned test profiles
