If you look closely at the specs, you''ll discover that Powerwall has a massive 5kW maximum continuous charge and discharge rate, which translates to the ability to fully charge your battery in under 3 hours and discharge it again at the same rate. Additionally, it can support a 7kW peak charge and discharge capacity for a maximum of 10 seconds.

To calculate charging time using this formula, you simply divide battery capacity by charging current. 100Ah ÷ 10A = 10 hrs. In this scenario, your estimated charge time is 10 hours. Tip: You can estimate how much battery capacity you need by using the inverse of this formula: amps × hours = amp hours.

Capacitors discharge when another path in the circuit that allows the charges to flow to each other is created. This causes the charges to flow out of the capacitor, and the capacitor becomes discharged after some time. . Understand capacitor discharge in physics.

Capacitors store energy as electrical potential. When charged, a capacitor''s energy is 1/2 Q times V, not Q times V, because charges drop through less voltage over time. The energy can also be expressed as 1/2 times capacitance times voltage squared. Remember, the voltage refers to the voltage across the capacitor, not necessarily the battery ...
