If you wire 4 batteries in Parallel that is the same voltage..

If he's running four 75ah batteries in series to get a 48VDC battery, then he gets 75Ah. On 6/13/2016 5:24 PM, Josh Luthman wrote:Oh you're complicating the question...I think. The capacity from one 75ah is simply quadrupled in your case. You have 300ah. When you add another (identical) battery you're adding capacity/runtime linearly.

Or if I’m just running a simple series of four 12v for 48 volts is 1.1 just the default I should use? Do I add up all the four 75ah ratings per battery and use that as the rated battery capacity number at 300ah? *From:*Af [mailto:[email protected] <mailto:[email protected]>] *On Behalf Of *Josh Luthman *Sent:* Monday, June 13, 2016 4:20 PM *To:* [email protected] <mailto:[email protected]> *Subject:* Re: [AFMUG] Peukert Number Peukert's formula, T = C / In (or C = T * In), where C is theoretical capacity (in amp-hours, equal to actual capacity at one amp), I is current (in amps), T is time (in hours), and n is the Peukert number for the battery. http://www.csgnetwork.com/batterylifecalc.html This?

Our Alpha's have a Peukert Number to help identify and tweak capacity in remaining amp hours. Can someone give me the short of this calculation? That is, if I have four 12v batteries run in series that are 75AH each?
