How many Amp hours does an 8D battery hold?

One of the most useful tools we can use is the battery's hour rating.Amp hours can tell us about the capacity of the battery, but they don't work the way you would expect.The calculations that go into battery building are more complex than the average person knows.We have a guide to help you understand what hours really mean and how to read them.

Before you compare batteries, you need to know where to look for hours on your battery.If you are looking at deep cycle batteries, the Amp hour rating will be displayed on the battery or the associated sales information.If you can't find an Amp hour rating on the battery you are looking at, it's probably because the starting battery is not built to provide continuous power.It is important to look at the right type of battery.

The rating is used to tell consumers how much power a battery can provide.In small batteries such as those used in personal vaporizers, or standard AA sized batteries, the Amp hour rating is usually given in micro-amp hours.The rating is abbreviated as Ah for large batteries.You can find the Ah rating at multiple C ratings on most deep cycle batteries.The C rating is the number of hours the battery can provide.A battery can provide 26.8 Amp hours.This means that there is enough power for 5 hours.36 Amp hours may be provided by the same battery.Depending on the amount of use you intend to get out of your battery, you will want to compare Amp hours for different C ratings.If you don't know which C rating to use, you should go with the C-20 because it is the middle ground and will give you a general sense of battery performance.

You might be wondering why a battery provides more power when it runs longer.It would make sense to think that a battery that only runs for five hours should provide less power than one that lasts 100 hours.The truth is that batteries produce a lot of heat when they are quickly discharged.The battery's efficiency is affected by this heat.When discharging a battery with a C-5 rating, you are losing some power because the battery gets hot.The C-100 battery is discharging at a slower pace and will be more efficient.

To get a battery that will support you through your day, you need to know how many hours your battery provides.A battery that is short on capacity is not something you want to buy.The battery experts at MK battery can give you more information.
