1. A method comprising:
receiving a first temperature value from a first temperature sensor associated with a battery and a second temperature value from a second temperature sensor associated with a heat source;
determining, based on the first temperature value and the second temperature value, a first temperature gradient;
increasing a temperature of the heat source by a predetermined amount;
receiving, based on the increase of the temperature of the heat source, an increased first temperature value and an increased second temperature value;
determining, based on the increased first temperature value and the increased second temperature value, a second temperature gradient;
comparing the first temperature gradient and the second temperature gradient to determine a thermal gradient difference; and
transmitting, based on the thermal gradient difference, an alert to a device associated with a user, the alert indicating a health of the battery.
