The truth about battery self discharge-what you need to know
The self-discharge rate of a battery impacts the capacity or usable lifetime of the battery. The battery self discharge will cause its capacity to decrease during storage. The self-discharge rate is related to the solubility of the cathode material in the electrolyte and its instability (easy self-decomposition) when heated.

As soon as a battery is manufactured, it immediately begins to lose its charge—it discharges its energy. Discharge occurs at variable rates based on chemistry, brand, storage environment, temperature. Self-discharge denotes the rate at which the battery self-depletes in idle storage. All batteries self-discharge over time even when idle.
