More Protection

[punchy187]

In order for me to get the complete view of what batteries to use and how to use them and knowing what each battery is protected from it might takes forever searching the internet because of very sparse specs and when there are decent specs they are very broad and unspecific. So if anybody could list all the possible protections there are and define what they protect against it would be very helpful. I am not concerned with battery types or chemistry and what chemistry batteries have what protection I just want a generalized list of all the possible protections used in all batteries from A-Z. These are the ones I am familiar with so I'll start the list. If there are anymore go ahead and add them. Thanks.

Reverse Polarity Protection
