RC Calculations Logo Battery Resistance Demo

This page shows the effect that battery resistance has on usable voltage and output power.

Select the desired nominal voltage and drag the sliders to vary the battery internal resistance and motor current. Note the difference between battery voltage rating and actual output voltage on the meter, especially as current and/or battery resistance are increased.
