Enter the battery capacity and the charge rate current into the calculator to determine the total time to charge to 100%.

## Battery Charge Formula

The following equation is used to calculate the battery charge time to 100% from 0%.

T = C/R
• Where T is the total time hours
• C is the capacity in mAH
• R is the rate in mA

To calculate the total time of battery charge, divide the capacity by the rate.

## Battery Charge Definition

A battery charge is defined as the total amount of time it takes a battery to charge from 0 to 100% or near 100%.

## Battery Charge Example
