Hi. I should probably already know this, but I don’t, so I thought I’d ask here.

If I have a charger marked as 1,5A and then try to charge a battery with 2Ah, what will happen?

  • Is the battery going to be charged, but slower?
  • Charged but not fully?
  • Not charged at all?

    You’re mixing up two units.

    Let’s say your battery has a capacity of 2 Ah (ampere * hours) and your charger outputs 2A (Ampere). This means the charger would need 1 hour to fully charge your battery. Now take a 1A charger, this would take 2 hours to charge the same battery.
