📐 Formula Reference

Runtime = (Capacity × Efficiency) / Load Current

Peukert: t = (C / In) where n = Peukert exponent

Energy (Wh) = Capacity (Ah) × Voltage

C-Rate = Load Current / Capacity

Actual runtime may vary due to temperature, age, and discharge curve shape. Li-ion retains ~80% capacity after ~500 cycles.
