There's definitely a lot of things about batteries and their problems that aren't modeled in SHIII, but the range/recharge times are more or less correct.

Since I made the original
Real Battery Life Mod (AKA Advanced NASA Battery Fix), I tend to disagree. I had a long and constructive discussion with Observer 1-2 months ago, but we didn't reach a mutual understanding.
-Observer says that the battery should be considered empty when @ 10% power
-I say that the battery is empty when @ 0% (when the message "Empty Battery!" appears)
But the sub is still going some knots between 10% and 0% (and it still drifts for many hours after 0% - stock "feature").
I'm not going to go over this argument again, but consider also that we are talking about nominal amp-hours not fatigued batteries after long usage during the war (much less than nominal). IMHO this game is too easy with the batteries. The stock game ranges are un-realistic IMHO. BTW, they are wrong too. I have put all my arguments here:

But NYGM is your mod. Your call. I'm just stating an opinion.
Remember AOD, guys!
