\n\nLipo Battery Run Time Calculator
\nUse this calculator to estimate how long your Lipo battery will power your RC plane, drone, or car based on its capacity and your device's power draw.
\n\n\n \n \n Your battery's storage capacity.\n
\n\n \n \n \n How much current your device consumes (amps).\n
\n\n \n \n \n Cell count (e.g., 3S=11.1V, 4S=14.8V).\n
