Re: Battery Performance Curve?
dsa,
Teams regularly draw more than 200 amps from this battery for short periods of time. The battery is capable of supplying in excess of 500 amps at full charge, again for a short period. However, at the high current, it will not be at 12 volts. In order to accurately predict your result you will need to gather data on how much current is used at certain times. Then using that data you can predict what might actually be your life expectancy. The critical factor is a battery that falls below 5.5 volts. This is the point at which the Crio will disable all output. At less than 4.5 volts, the power supplies on the PD stop working and power to the Crio and radio will fail.
If you are designing your mechanical to use the motor(s) in a high current state, be advised that the breakers cannot supply that current for long and the both Victor and Jag are not designed for sustained high currents.
