How long it will take for me to charge a car battery at 50 amps.

This a friend asked before. And later there are some other customer ask for some similar question like: How long to charge a car battery at 40 amps. Of cause, there will be some more ask 30amps or 60amps.

Here Let me simply anwser this question here.

When we talke about car battery. It is normally a lead acid battery inside of the car. And a normal one is about 70amp hour or 60ah. Let’s say, if the battery can take as much as 50 amps current. Based on the calculation, we understand, it will be fully charged by 1 hour more.  But from acture operation, this could be much more then 1 hour. Or maybe 2 hours. We know the battery start charge will accept the peak current. later, when the battery voltage goes up, the charging current will slow down. We call it floating charge. During floating charge, you will not possible to load the large current. That’s why it will takes much longer based on your battery.

Learn how to charge the battery

This is a sad question when people ask.

When you try to charge your car battery. Means your car battery is almost dead. If you have time to learn how long it takes to charge the battery at some current( 40 or 50 amps.). why not just think how to find a new one for replace. Or maybe you will stuck on the road most probebely , and you don’t know when that’s will comes to you.

Think about a LiFePo4 battery to replace the lead acid car battery?

Let’s check if CMX can provide such a battery or not?
