Hi Michael, From the link you could have gone to this prof’s website,
but here is an easy to use list of all his freely available publications, he has done a lot of work on applications of rechargeable batteries: http://www.che.sc.edu/faculty/popov/drbnp/website/pubbooks.html Hope this helps, Cor van de Water Chief Scientist Proxim Wireless office +1 408 383 7626 Skype: cor_van_de_water XoIP +31 87 784 1130 private: cvandewater.info <http://www.cvandewater.info> www.proxim.com <http://www.proxim.com/> This email message (including any attachments) contains confidential and proprietary information of Proxim Wireless Corporation.

Was it in a journal, is the peer review? Has it been repeated? Is there a more complete copy or a place where it can be purchased?

I have found some explicitly talking about the lack of a charge shuttle mechanism like in lead-acid batteries, however. One paper I read has a section devoted to figuring out a charge shuttle mechanism to add to a Li cell. It isn't a paper for the faint of heart, however. It is "Nonaqueous Liquid Electrolytes for Lithium-Based Rechargeable Batteries" by Kang Xu published in the Chemical Review, 2004, Vol. 104, No. 10, pp. 4303-4417 and published on the web 09/16/2004. While I'm sure I don't get it 100% of the time I try to make sure I say, "LiFePO4 cells have no theoretical self discharge mechanism." This, according to all I have been able to find on the cells, is true. Also, the most ardent anti-BMS people I have found have in fact done a lot of searching of the scientific literature and came to the same conclusion. It was not just something they made up to support their anti-BMS position. If you have other literature showing what the self-discharge mechanism is please share it.
