mA/h Power Consumption Calculator

This calculator estimates the total energy usage of a device in milliamp-hours (mAh) by multiplying its current draw (mA) by the number of hours it operates. It’s helpful for evaluating battery life and designing energy-efficient systems.

Milliamp-Hour Consumption Formula

Formula
$$\text{Consumption}_{\text{mAh}} = I_{\text{mA}} \cdot t_{\text{h}}$$

Where:

  • $$I_{mA}$$ = current in milliamps (mA)
  • $$t_{h}$$ = time in hours (h)
  • $$Consumption_{mAh}$$ = energy consumed in milliamp-hours (mAh)

This formula provides a quick estimation of power consumption when current draw is constant over time.


mA/h Power Consumption – Calculation Example

Given:

  • $$I$$ = 200 mA
  • $$t$$ = 5 hours

Calculation:

  1. $$\text{Consumption}_{mAh} = 200 \cdot 5 = 1000~\text{mAh}$$


The mA/h power consumption calculator is ideal for estimating how much charge a battery-powered device will consume over a given period. It is widely used in electronics, robotics, IoT, and mobile device development. Knowing the energy requirement helps optimize power supply design, battery sizing, and operation time prediction for portable systems.
