To calculate the capacity of a lead-acid battery, you need to know its reserve capacity (RC) and voltage. The reserve capacity is the number of minutes a fully charged battery can deliver a constant current of 25 amps at 80°F until its voltage drops below 10.5 volts. The formula for determining the capacity of a lead-acid battery is:
The capacity of a lead–acid battery is not a fixed quantity but varies according to how quickly it is discharged. The empirical relationship between discharge rate and capacity is known as Peukert's law.
The formula used to calculate the capacity of a battery during a test is: Capacity (Ah) = (Current (A) x Time (h)) / Voltage (V) This formula takes into account the current and time of the discharge, as well as the voltage of the battery. It provides an estimate of the battery’s capacity in ampere-hours (Ah).
This comes to 167 watt-hours per kilogram of reactants, but in practice, a lead–acid cell gives only 30–40 watt-hours per kilogram of battery, due to the mass of the water and other constituent parts. In the fully-charged state, the negative plate consists of lead, and the positive plate is lead dioxide.
The formula for determining the energy capacity of a lithium battery is: For example, if a lithium battery has a voltage of 11.1V and an amp-hour rating of 3,500mAh, its energy capacity would be: Lead-acid batteries are commonly used in automotive applications and as backup power sources.
To accurately measure the capacity of a car battery, it is important to follow the manufacturer’s instructions for conducting a capacity test. This typically involves charging the battery to its full capacity, and then discharging it completely while measuring the amount of energy it produces.

Capacity is the leading health indicator of a battery, but estimating it on the fly is complex. The traditional charge/discharge/charge cycle is still the most dependable method to measure battery capacity. While portable batteries can be cycled relatively quickly, a full cycle on large lead acid batteries is not practical for capacity measurement.
If the battery is left at low states of charge for extended periods of time, large lead sulfate crystals can grow, which permanently reduces battery capacity. These larger crystals are unlike the typical porous structure of the lead electrode, and are difficult to convert back into lead. Voltage of lead acid battery upon charging.
