> Lithium Ion batteries charge near 100% efficiency
The power electronics to charge the battery also have losses. Although they are getting really good, my guess would be something better than 95% efficiency in the battery charger. There are some really great improvements in power transistors recently though, so this number will still have some room for improvement.
- arcticbull 5y agoThank you for calling that out. I was going to say something about that, and budget say 10% to switching regulators. With car-scale charging systems I just didn't have enough data to ballpark efficiency.
