How to Con rm Charging Current
It is very important to know the maximum charging current of the battery as excessive current
could in uence the life span of battery and/or cause damages. In addition, excessive current can
cause heating and/or explosion of the battery during the charging process.
The charging and discharging capacity of battery is usually marked with C value. Multiplying the
charging C value and battery capacity equals to the maximum charging current supported by
the battery. For example, for a 1000 mAh battery with a charging capacity of 5C, the maximum
charging current would be 1000*5=5000mA; therefore, the maximum charging current is 5A.
For a lithium battery, if it is impossible to con rm the supported charging C value, please set the
charging current below 1C for the sake of its (lithium battery) safety.
The reference relation between C value and charging time: charging time ≥60 minutes/
charging C value (it therefore needs around 60~70 minutes to complete charging with 1C). Due
to di erences in battery conversion e ciency, the period to complete the charging might be
extended.
