Hi dear enthusiasts,
I just would like to confirm something that I have read over the internet and still think that I have some doubts. Am I correct that the "PbEq" amp-hour ratings used on lightweight lithium batteries are three times higher than what the amp-hour capacity of the actual battery is? I read somewhere that they include the "PbEq" rating for "starting purposes". What are the precautions of this and what type of issues can this cause if not considered. Also I do appreciate if someone could tell me how the maths for converting the lithium capacity to lead acid equivalent (i.e. "PbEq") works out?
Many Many thanks![[bigsmile]](/data/assets/smilies/bigsmile.gif "[bigsmile] [bigsmile]")
