Abstract: Apparatus, systems, and methods for battery charging and formation are disclosed herein that charge, or discharge, one or more batteries and stop charging or discharging each battery once it has reached a desired state-of-charge, as determined by comparing calculated Tafel slope to a reference Tafel slope for the battery. Computer-readable instructions and/or hardware are also provided for installation upon a previously existing battery charging system or battery discharging system.
