- Different tool settings can affect power consumption
How to Use the Calculator
Using the Hilti RE 500 Consumption Calculator is straightforward:
- Enter the battery capacity of your Hilti RE 500 tool in watt-hours (Wh)
- Select the tool mode you'll be using (e.g., drilling, cutting)
- Enter the number of hours you plan to use the tool
- Click "Calculate" to see the results
Note: The calculator provides estimates based on typical usage. Actual results may vary.
Formula
The calculator uses the following formula to estimate battery consumption:
Where:
- Tool Power Consumption is the power draw of the tool in the selected mode
- Usage Time is the planned usage duration in hours
- Battery Capacity is the total capacity of the battery in watt-hours
The result is expressed as a percentage of battery consumption, showing how much of the battery's capacity will be used during the specified time.
Example Calculation
Let's look at an example to understand how the calculator works:
Scenario
- Battery capacity: 2000 Wh
- Tool mode: Drilling (power consumption: 300 W)
- Usage time: 4 hours
Calculation
In this example, drilling for 4 hours would consume 60% of the battery's capacity.
