I am still learning about all of this they may well not however I assumed they might be close as they have somewhat similar cell voltages when at 12V. So they have 12.8 nominal and the lead acid has 12.6V I know that is trivial but I am thinking they would then have similar charge profiles as...
I see batteries in the same group size but they indicate higher Ah rating yet I always thought LiFePO4 batteries were better. So I was curious to find the true k value so I could do a proper comparison. I have the reserve capacity of the other but it is unlisted for the battery I am messing with...
I was hoping to get it so I could play with some calculations to determine if this battery holds an advantage of its lead acid counterparts in terms of capacity.
I think I understand where the issue comes from I am trying to use the manufacturers rated current not necessarily the load they applied. Therefore I don't have the actual number that the equation called for.
I ordered an electronic load tester so that way I can draw a constant 10A and read the capacity at that draw. Which if I time the point at which I fully drain the battery then I can find k.
I just mean based on the equation on the Wikipedia page you linked how can I find k if I know t, H,C, and I? This is for a LiFePO4 based battery not that it matters but I wanted an exact number I didn't just want to pull typical numbers that's why I am trying to figure this out I am hoping with...
So I have been trying to derive peukerts exponent based on assumptions I know this won't be accurate but I am curious about the data. So I don't know the time to discharge the battery so I guessed 3 Hours the capacity at a 20 hour rate is 40Ah meaning the manufacturer rated discharge current was...
