Did you know? Internal resistance

Internal resistance is the opposition to current flow within a battery, caused by its materials, chemical processes, and structure. It leads to voltage drops and heat generation under load, and typically increases with battery aging, temperature changes, and usage, affecting overall performance and efficiency.

If you are discharging batteries with Otii Arc (256-4687) and Ace Pro (257-3555) and Otii Battery Toolbox your battery discharge profiles for pulsed loads will include internal resistance information and can therefore be used to emulate battery behaviour.
