3 best practices in designing a long battery life for your IoT device
summary
Three concrete practices: measure whole activity cycles continuously across hardware, firmware, temperatures and distances; profile batteries from specific batches and vendors against device peak currents (coin cells often fail high peaks); replay battery profiles with Otii and iterate usable capacity to find the real lifetime (datasheet 10-year claim can collapse to ~20% in practice). The talk demonstrates emulation tools, measured numbers, and a repeatable workflow rather than vague examples.
