Hello,
I am first time going to use battery in a project and trying to collect information about Polymer Li Ion batter (https://www.sparkfun.com/products/13813)
According to description, output a nominal 3.7V at 1000mAh. I assume current rating is 1000mA or 1A. My question is that if my project requires 3A constant current, can I use this battery and will assume battery will be dried by 1hour/3=20 mins. Or I have to use three battery in parallel? Or I should use different battery? What are the choices do I have?
