Furthermore, the charging or discharging rate of the battery is expressed in fractions or multiples of the C rate. For example, a C/2 charge or discharge rate means that the battery will be charged or discharged in two hours whereas a 2C charge or discharge takes 30 min. Batteries best operate at low C rates, so the lithium ions …
