Just thought about this, isn’t it a bit silly that we all use milli Ah while all the values are above the thousands? Like, 5000 mAh is just 5 Ah
It’s because you can get more when measuring in mA than you can in A.
5000 mAh means you can get 5000 hours out when pulling at 1mA. 5 Ah means you can get 5 hours when pulling at 1A.
You’d think these are commutative, but battery chemistry doesn’t work that way. The harder you load, the less actual power you can get. So a battery that can provide 1mA for 5000 hours can’t necessarily provide 1A for 5 hours.
