ABOUT PowerWizardAS
PowerWizard is a useful app for anyone working with Home Solar panel or wind turbine technologies, power inverters, batteries, or other electrical science projects.
It features a simple, easy to use interface with quick access to many frequently used calculations.
This is the ad-supported version of PowerWizard, a premium, ad-free version is also available for just €0.99!
Some of the features of this app include:Calculating the safe discharge rate of a battery given it's type (Automotive, Deep Cycle, etc)Calculating the approximate charge remaining in a battery given it's Terminal voltage (as measured by a multimeter).Calculating the total load on an inverter given the inverter efficiency.Calculating the battery life given the load on the inverter.Calculating Amps, Volts, and Watts.Calculating the approximate time to charge a battery of a given size at a given input current.
Usage Guide for the various input fields:
Battery Menu
Amp Hours: Continuous Amp Hours of the Battery.Battery Type: Different types of batteries have very different characteristics.Max Safe Discharge: The maximum amount that a battery can be discharged will vary with the battery type.Usable Amp hours: The total Amp hours that can be safely discharged on this battery.Terminal Voltage: The Voltage as measured across the battery's terminals with a voltmeter or multimeter.Charge Remaining: The *Approximate* state of charge of the battery based on the terminal voltage.Usable Amp Hours Remaining: The usable amp hours remaining in the battery, given the battery type and current charge remaining.
Power Menu
Amps, Volts, Watts: Given two quantities, calculates the third using the formula: Watts = Volts multipled by AmpsInput Amps: Input amps from charging device, such as solar panel or wind turbine.To Charge: How many Amp Hours to be charged.Charge Time: The time, in Hours and Minutes, to charge the given amp hours using the given input current.
Load Menu
Load: Total load of all devices to be connected to the InverterInverter Efficiency: The more efficient the inverter, the less energy will be wasted.Total Watts: The total Wattage drawn from the battery, given the Inverter's Efficiency rating.Total Amperage: The total current draw from the Battery, given the total wattage, and assuming the battery is 12 Volts.Load: Total load of all devices to be connected to the InverterRemaining Amp Hours: The remaining (usable) Amp hours of the battery.Hrs/Mins: The total time for the given Amp hours to be discharged while operating at the given load.
