I'm trying to figure out how long my battery would last in these conditions:
I have a 3Ah battery and I need to run a sequence. The sequence goes like this:
The maximum draw would be 2 amps.
0 secs: 1 amp draw
2 secs: 2 amp draw
4 secs: 2 amp draw
6 secs: 2 amp draw
8 secs: 2 amp draw
10 secs: 2 amp draw
12 secs: 1 amp draw
14 secs: 0 amp draw
20 secs: repeat sequence
If I were to take this sequence and graph it out, I would think I could take the area of the curve and get Amp-Seconds and do my calculation from there or am I way off base?
