CHARGE PERIOD
The approximate time required to bring a battery to a full charge
state depends upon the number of ampere hours (AH’s) de-
pleted from the battery. AH’s are determined by multiplying the
number of hours times the number of amps supplied by a bat-
tery to a load. For example - if a load was connected to a bat-
tery which drew 10 Amps for a period of 5 hours, the battery will
have supplied 50 AH’s. The approximate recharge time required
to restore the 50 AH’s depleted from the battery would be cal-
culated by dividing 50 AH’s by the selected charge rate. If the
40 Amp charge rate is chosen then divide 50 AH’s by 40 Amps,
this equal to 1.25 hours or 1 hour and 15 minutes. During the
charge cycle, the 40 Amp charge rate will not remain constant,
rather as the battery charges it will taper to approximately 15
Amps. Also not all of the energy going into the battery is di-
rectly converted, some is lost in the form of heat. For these
reasons allow an additional 25% in charge time. For this ex-
ample add 20 minutes to the 1 hour and 15 minutes for a total
recharge time of 1 hour and 35 minutes.
