 === Charge and Discharge Rates ===
-<div class="mw-collapsible mw-collapsed">
 If the battery is charged or discharged at a different rate than specified( Different current), the available amp-hour capacity will increase or decrease. Generally, if the battery is discharged at a slower rate, its capacity will probably be slightly higher. More rapid rates will generally reduce the available capacity.
