C-Rate

The C-rate indicates how fast a battery is charged or discharged. A charge rate of 1C means that a battery is fully charged within one hour. A charge rate of 0.2C means a battery is fully charged within 5 hours. In general, low C rates have a more favorable effect on battery life than high rates. Tolerance to high C rates decreases with increasing battery age and in many cases is a safety risk that should not be underestimated. NOVUM technology provides you with the currently appropriate C-rate for each battery. In this way, you not only avoid critical situations, but also ensure that you can use your storage systems longer.
