The 12 amp hour battery will last longer under the same load as a 10 amp hour battery. For example if you had a load drawing 2 amps, the 12 Ahr battery would last 6 hours and the 10 Ahr would last 5 hours under ideal conditions.

What happens when a 70 amp hour battery is connected to a 50 amp hour charging circuit voltage of both batteries are being same?

The 50 amp charging circuit will never be able achieve a full charge for the 70 amp hour battery, thus in effect turning the 70 amp hour battery into a 50 amp hour battery.


What is a amp hour?

It is one amp current used over one hour. A ten amp hour battery can supply 1/2 an amp for 20 hours, 1 amp for 10 hours, etc.


450 amp-hour battery bank?

The rating of 450 amp-hours in a battery bank means that the battery can supply 450 amperes for one hour, so to speak. In reality, these ratings are normalized to an eight hour rate, which means that this battery can supply about 56 amperes for eight hours. Actual run time at 450 amperes would be somewhat less than an hour.

Can you use a 600 amp hour battery instead of a 400 amp hour battery in a portable phone?

The "amp-hour" number is the length of time the battery is expected to lastbetween charges, in normal use. It's a way of describing the battery's capacity.The device in which it's installed won't know the difference. The real differenceis that you won't have to recharge the battery as often.Make sure that the voltage of both batteries is the same. If they're not, thenyou can't do it. If they are, then go right ahead.And by the way, batteries with 400 Amp-hour or 600 Amp-hour capacities arecar batteries or truck batteries. They're bigger than a breadbox and weigh aton. The batteries for portable phones may be 400 or 600 mAh ... milliamp-hours.1 Amp-hour is 1,000 milliamp-hours.


What happens if you put a 60 amp hour battery in instead of a 72 amp hour battery?

In your car it will probably be OK except in extremely cold conditions or after 2-3 years use.


What is cost per amp hour speaking in terms of batteries?

Varies with the battery. I just bought a deep cycle battery last week at Walmart. 115 amp hour (trolling motor battery) for about $74.00. That is a lead acid battery. Other types and sizes will vary.


What is difference in a 12 volt 12ah battery verse a 35ah 12 battery?

Ah is amp hours. It describes the capacity of the battery. A bit like the size of a fuel tank. The 12 Ah battery can deliver 12 amps for one hour, 24 amps for 1/2 hour or 6 amps for two hours. Or any other combination of time x amps that makes 12. The 35 amp hour battery is almost three times the capacity of the 12 amp hour battery.


How long does it take to charge a 8.4v battery?

Not enough information. What's the MaH of the battery? MilliAmp Hour/Amp Hour? What wattage is the battery? Lithium Ion, or Nickel Cadmium?


How many amps do you need to charge a 7.2 battery?

Hi, To properly charge a battery, you should apply a voltage that causes current to flow (being careful to get the plus and minus hooked up properly!) at about 1/10th the amp/hour rating of the battery. For a 7.2 amp/hour battery you should not charge much faster than 0.72 amps. This is the best practice to prolong the life of your battery. Chris


How long does it take to charge 12V battery with 45watt solar panel?

That depends on the amp-hour capacity of the battery.
