+Redflow specifies that BatteryLife should be disabled in [[battery_compatibility:redflow_zcell|Redflow ZCell]] installations, because the ZCell battery can rest at zero SoC without damage for an unlimited period, and also because the BatteryLife function conflicts with the ZCell battery maintenance cycle.
