Help with setting Peukert's Equation
I have a E-Meter (Link 10, Checkmate, Energy Manager)That needs to have it's "n" value reset for a larger battery bank. Default number is 1.25. I have increased my capacity to 500ah with 4 AGM 125ah ...

Stick with 1.25 unless the chemistry changes. The peukert factor just helps estimate the power available from different discharge levels. Discharging at 100 amps vs 10 amps is not linear and the 1.25 factor helps estimate the difference.
Now if you move to AGM you might go 1.1 and litium-ion maybe 1.04 etc but stick with 1.25 on the wet cell.
