So I got this extended battery for my phone - it's Li-Ion so all of the essential facts and attributes of it work exactly the same as 18650s and such, it's just flat and square.
I got it and the phone said it's at 0%. Now I realize the % in the phone is an 'idiot gauge' and doesn't tell you the voltage, I don't think 0% in the operating system translates to 0V. It may have been 2.5V or such. The voltage at which the phone shuts off. Anyway, I recharged it and it recovered nicely. And keeps working without visible anomalies. I should have taken a voltage reading before I recharged to determine the voltage it was at.
I don't remember recovering 18650s and such discharged to 0V, and if I did, they didn't held charge.
The other factor I don't know is how long it has been in the discharge state. Should I complain to the seller?
