2. Nickel-Iron (NiFe) Battery Calculator 

Other Battery Calculators
(LiFePo4) (NiFe) (Lead) (SC)

Calculator is set to 42x 200Ah, 1.2V cells =50.4V, 10.08kWh Battery Bank.

You can only change the RED cells.

Ampere Hour into Kilowatt Hour Electrical Unit Conversion:

Battery/Cell Rating (Volts):
Volts 
Battery/Cell Capacity:
Ah   =  =
Battery/Cells in Series: Series Wiring  (-/+ Doubles Voltage, Same Capacity)
Battery/Cells in Parallel: Parallel Wiring  (+/+ Same Voltage, Doubles Capacity)
Total Batteries/Cells in System:

System Stored Energy:

System Voltage:
System Energy Stored Wh:
 (Wh =Watt-hours)   (Ah =Amp-hours)
System Energy Storage kWh:  (1'000 kW = 1 MW)   (1 MW = 1'000 KW)

Battery Bank Charge/Discharge Time: (max. 80% DOD =0.80 C rating recommended)

Charge/Discharge Load: Ah  Set this Cell to your proposed Amps Usage or Charge Rate !
Charge/Discharge Load: Wh   Single Phase Power is 3'600W = 3.6kW (e.g. 240V x 15A).
Battery's "C" Load:  Marketing term for Charge/Discharge.
Battery Load Time: Hours to Charge or Discharge.  Calculater on 100% Depth Of Discharge (DOD).
Battery Load Time: Minutes to Charge or Discharge. 
 

Discharge Formulas;

Discharge time is basically the Ah rating divided by the current.

Charge Formulas;

Example: Battery Ah x Battery Voltage ÷ Applied load.

So, for a 1200Ah battery with a load that draws 30A you have: #1200÷30 =40 hours.

The charge time depends on the battery chemistry and the charge current.   For NiFe, for example, using Solar this could typically be <65% of the Ah rating for 4~6 hours.   Other chemistries, such as LiFe & LiMh batteries will be different.

Say, 1200Ah x 48V÷1000 Watts =12 hrs (with 40% loss at the max = 48x40÷1000 =1.92 hrs).

For sure, the backup may lasts up to 4.8 hrs at 100% efficiency.

#1200mAh is the same as 1.2Ah. 300mA is the same as 0.3A

  • Wh = Ah x Voltage, where 1kW = 1000W.
  • "C" Rating is the Battery Charge or Discharge Rate.
Watt hours  ÷  Volts  =  Amp hours   |   Capacity  ÷  Load  =  Battery life
(V) ÷ (V) = (Ah)   (in Ah) ÷ (in A) = (in h)
