Battery pack configurator

Pack voltage, capacity, energy, weight, and continuous current for any S/P configuration. Common 18650, 21700, pouch, NiMH, and coin cells.

Pack layout — S×P grid — cells
S = 3 series (V) P = 2 parallel (Ah)
Li-ion 80% · LiFePO4 90% · NiMH 85%
Engineering notes

Pack math

  • Vpack = S · Vcell
  • Ahpack = P · Ahcell
  • Whpack = Vpack · Ahpack

Design watch-outs

  • Match cell capacity within 50 mAh and IR within 5 mΩ for parallel groups.
  • BMS: overvoltage, undervoltage, overcurrent, cell balancing.
  • Air-shipping Li-ion >100 Wh requires Section II UN38.3 docs.
  • Continuous current uses a per-cell C-rate baked into each chemistry (2–3C for Li-ion high-power cells, 0.05C for CR2032). Check the actual cell datasheet — your specific part may be more or less capable than these defaults.
