GLOSSARY of TERMS
Amps (A):
The unit of measure for charge current.
Milli-amps (mA):
A unit of measure for current, being amps
(A) multiplied by 1000 and listed as “mA”. So 2.5A is the
same as 2500mA (2.5 1000). Or, to convert mA to amps,
divide the mA number by 1000. So 25mA is the same as
0.025A (25 divided by 1000).
Capacity and milli-amp hours (mAh):
The amount of
energy a battery can store is called its
capacity
, which
is defi ned as how much current a battery can supply
constantly over one hour of time. Most hobby batteries are
rated for capacity in
“mAh” or milli-amp hours
. A 650mAh
battery can deliver 650mA of current for one hour (650mA
1hr = 650mAh). A 3200mAh battery can deliver 3200mA
(3.2A) of current for one hour (3200mA 1hr = 3200 mAh), etc.
“C” rating:
Capacity is also referred to as the “C” rating.
Some battery suppliers recommend charge currents based
on the battery’s “C” rating. A battery’s “1C” current is the
same number as the battery’s rated capacity number, but
noted in mA or amps. A 600mAh battery has a 1C current
value of 600mA, and a 3C current value of (3 600mA)
1800mA or 1.8A. The 1C current value for a 3200mAh
battery would be 3200mA (3.2A), etc.
