Battery Runtime Estimat
To estimate the approximate battery Runtime, you can use the following formula:
Battery Life = Battery Capacity / Average Current Consumption of Device × (1 - Discharge Safety Percentage)
Battery Life = Battery Capacity / ( W / V ) × (1 - Discharge Safety Percentage)
-
Battery Capacity: Represents the storage capacity of the battery, measured in Ampere-hours (Ah).
-
Average Current Consumption of Device: Represents the average current consumed by the electronic device during operation, measured in Amperes (A).
-
Discharge Safety Percentage: Represents the portion of the battery capacity that is reserved and not used for safety reasons. For example, with lithium-polymer batteries, it is generally recommended not to discharge the battery below 20% to avoid damaging the battery. By default, our battery life calculator uses 20% as the discharge safety percentage, but you can adjust it based on your actual situation.
Using this formula, you can estimate the approximate battery life based on the battery's capacity, the device's current consumption, and the discharge safety percentage.
