Dear All, I have a request concerning batteries.
How to choose the accurate battery for an electric truck?
is there any formula to help me?
I think that the biggest Ah is the best, but I'm not sure, and I want to know the advantages and inconvenients of a big capacity battery vs.
I imagine that if I choose a 48V - 485 Ah battery, this would need to be charged less often than a 48V - 330 Ah.
Furthermore, as a battery is built to be charged 1500/1600 times, we can imagine that the 48V - 485 Ah would last longer.
But I'm sure that it is not so simple...
Would somebody please be able to explain how to chosse a battery?

Thank you!
