Microsoft Surface Battery Capacity

Battery capacity can be measured in different units, and it is essential to understand the difference. In mobile phones and power banks, battery capacity is typically measured in milliamp-hours (mAh). However, the Microsoft Surface family’s battery capacity is measured in milliwatts-hours (mWh).

In this article, we’ve provided a comprehensive list of battery capacities in mAh, mWh, and battery voltage for every Surface device, along with a guide on converting between mWh and mAh.

How to Convert mWh to mAh?

To convert milliwatt-hours (mWh) to milliamp-hours (mAh), we use the following formula:

(mAh) = (mWh) / (V)

Example: Surface Pro 3 has a battery capacity of 42 Wh, or 42,000 mWh has battery capacity in mAh as below:

42,000 mWh / 7.5 V = 5,600 mAh

So, the Surface Pro 3 has a battery capacity of 5,600 mAh.

You can also use the calculator below to help you convert from Wh to mAh or vice versa.

Note Updated on September 29, 2023: We updated the article to include the battery capacity of the new Surface Laptop Studio 2, Surface Laptop Go 3, and Surface Go 4.
