Data from Standard NiCd battery cell vendors is found to be useful for identifying defective cells. A method has been developed to screen cells for flight battery use and identify prime candidate cells for life-cycle testing. Specific points from the cell vendor's data, which are related to fundamentals of NiCd cell chemistry (primarily oxygen recombination) and electrical performance (voltage and capacity), when sampled at key points, are found to be related to long-term LEO life-cycle performance.
