Abstract: The present invention provides a classification method and system for rechargeable batteries based on stable charging current or current leakage. A charging current should be zero theoretically when a rechargeable battery is fully charged, however, due to self-discharging effect, there exists a current leakage even after the battery is fully charged. Rechargeable batteries can be classified based on their stable charging current after being fully charged. Different classified rechargeable batteries can be adopted for different purposes.
