Calcule cuánto durará una batería con una carga de potencia determinada, considerando su capacidad y voltaje.
This calculator determines the total energy stored in a battery (in Watt-hours) and then divides it by the power your devices consume. The result is the estimated time the battery can sustain that load.
Does this account for inverter efficiency?
No, this is a simplified calculation. If you are using an inverter to convert DC battery power to AC, you should account for its inefficiency. A typical inverter is 85-95% efficient. To get a more accurate result, divide the final runtime by the inverter's efficiency (e.g., divide by 0.90 for 90% efficiency).
What about Peukert's Law?
Peukert's Law states that as the rate of discharge increases, the available capacity of a battery decreases. This calculator does not account for Peukert's effect, which is most prominent in lead-acid batteries under heavy loads. The calculated runtime is most accurate for low to moderate discharge rates.
