[TriEmbed] another lithium battery reference

[Pete Soper]

For those that found that forum posting lacking, here's a short but 
interesting treatment:

Here's an amazing quote:

   "The fragile tendency of Li-Ion batteries to overcharging imposes 
stringent recharge requirements. But it is not just overcharging that is 
the problem, because even slight undercharging significantly reduces 
capacity. Undercharging the battery by 1.2 percent of its optimum 
full-charge voltage, for example, lowers the capacity by a remarkable 9 
percent. Consequently, designers aim to charge the cell to within 1 
percent of its optimum full-charge to get the most out of the battery."
