What Is A Battery C Rating & How to Calculate C Rate
The C-rate is a crucial parameter for measuring the charge and discharge rate of lithium batteries, directly affecting their performance and application scenarios. It represents the relationship between the discharge/charge current and the rated capacity of the battery. The formula for calculating the C-rate is: C-Rate = Charge/Discharge Current (A) / Rated Capacity (Ah). A clear understanding of the C-rate helps in selecting the right lithium battery to ensure stable operation and optimal efficiency of the device. What is C-Rate? The C-rate defines the charging and discharging speed of a battery and is expressed as the ratio of current to the rated capacity (Ah). A 1C charging rate means the battery can be fully charged in one hour. The smaller the C value, the longer the charging time. A 1C discharge rate means the battery can be fully discharged in one hour. Similarly, a lower C value results in a…
