This work analyses the factors affecting the capacity of rechargeable chemical electrical power sources. Primarily, it is focused on the classification of these factors and the development of recommendations for increasing the capacity of batteries. We propose an original approach to the Li-ion rechargeable batteries operation, that is mandatory input control and several charge/discharge cycles before placing Li-ion accumulator battery into the operating device. We propose a method for periodic control of Li-ion accumulator batteries in particularly important devices and for the concept of predictive repair. The charge volume loss during operation of a Li-ion rechargeable battery at sub-zero temperatures was assessed quantitatively. The engineered method and the created device can be used when operating a Li-ion accumulator battery at sub-zero temperatures, in the far north, or in the case of increased reliability requirements for devices running on Li-ion rechargeable batteries. Further research will be aimed at the automated monitoring of the state of Li-ion accumulator battery, as well as the possibility of integrating this development into devices using Li-ion accumulator battery in advanced smart systems.
