Best Answer

The discharge time of a battery depends upon its Ah. capacity, Load current & rate of discharge.

If a 150Ah battery rated for 10hours is discharged at 15A rate it should last upto 10 hours if the temperature and specific gravity of the electrolyte (in case of flooded type batteries) are within specified limits.

If the same battery is discharged at 12.5 A it will last upto 5hours.

1. As the discharge rate increases the capacity of battery decreases.

2. As the temperature increases the capacity of battery increases.

It's a difficult question without specifics. I suppose things such as nanowire batteries which have a high capacity and a low charge time whilst retaining their original charge for many cycles.

I cannot definitely answer your question as I have no data on those specific batteries, however did you allow the batteries to fully charge before trying to use them? Many modern high capacity rechargeable batteries come with a small charge at the time of sale and if used in that state they will be permanently damaged. To prevent damaging them always fully charge them before using them (and this first charge will take several hours).

Rechargeable batteries have high self-discharge rates meaning you will need to recharge them after a few days of sitting or just charge them when needed.


Are lithium batteries better than nickel metal hydride batteries?

Yes because they use less chemicals, last longer per charge and last through more charges lithium batteries are non rechargeable. Lithium ion batteries are rechargeable. lithium batteries last a lot longer than standard alkaline batteries and work well in digital cameras and stuff that are high drain. NiMH is also good for the same purpose. it depends on your preference. if you dont mind charging the batteries multiple times than go with NiMH. if you want to use something for a good while and throw them away, use lithium. both have their pros and cons.
