Re: paper: Team 900 Battery Cart

A little light reading here

The heat coming the battery is I R losses due to internal resistance, and the chemical reaction is exothermic.

And there are some switching losses in the chargers. And yes I still don't have a hard number, and I probably will not go that far. But it is an interesting question.
