Battery Charging Fundamentals

Battery Capacity (Ah)

Battery capacity in Amp-hours (Ah) indicates how much charge a battery can store. It's the primary factor determining how long it takes to charge.

Charging Current (A)

  • The charging current (A) is the rate at which charge is delivered to the battery.
  • A higher charging current will result in a shorter charging time.

Key Formula:

Charge Time (Hours) = Battery Capacity (Ah) / Charger Current (A)

Calculation Formulas

Charging Time (Hours):
Time (Hours) = Ah / A

Example Calculation

Battery Bank: 100Ah

Charger: 10A

Charge Time (Hours) = 100Ah / 10A = 10 Hours

Result: 10:00
