Lithium-ion batteries have revolutionized energy storage with their high energy density, low maintenance, and long cycle life. For larger capacity needs, such as in solar energy systems, electric vehicles, or backup power applications, a 150Ah lithium-ion battery provides an excellent balance of size, weight, and power. In this blog, we will explore how to calculate the lasting time of a 150Ah lithium-ion battery and introduce EVE‘s high-performance model, the LF150.
Calculating the Lasting Time of a 150Ah Lithium-Ion Battery
To understand how long a 150Ah lithium-ion battery will last, it’s important to know a few key details about your battery and the load it will be supporting. Here’s a step-by-step guide on how to calculate the lasting time:
Step 1: Determine the Battery’s Total Energy Capacity
First, calculate the total energy capacity in watt-hours (Wh). This can be done by multiplying the nominal voltage by the ampere-hours (Ah). For lithium-ion batteries, the nominal voltage is often 3.2V or 3.7V depending on the specific chemistry.
For EVE’s LF150, the nominal capacity is 150Ah and the battery energy can be directly found from its specification:
– Nominal Energy: 483 Wh
Step 2: Estimate the Power Demand of Your Application
This is generally measured in watts (W). For example, if you are powering an appliance that requires 100W:
– Power Demand: 100W
Step 3: Calculate the Lasting Time
Divide the battery’s total energy capacity by the power demand of your application. This will give you the lasting time in hours.
– Lasting Time = Nominal Energy / Power Demand
– Lasting Time = 483 Wh / 100W = 4.83 hours
This calculation provides a rough estimate. The actual lasting time can vary based on factors such as battery age, temperature, and discharge rate.
