How does this calculation work?

We calculate how much energy you want to replenish per day, divide by your driving hours, and round up to the nearest common DC-DC charger size. We account for the maximum charge rate of your battery type (0.5C for lithium, 0.1C for lead-acid).

This calculation is an estimate. Actual charge current depends on alternator capacity, cable thickness and ambient temperature. Consult a professional for installation.

This is one part of an installation. Work out the rest.
