What does AH stand for?
“AH” stands for Ampere Hour and is a unit of electrical capacity. This tells you how much electrical energy the battery will store. Typically, it is the current multiplied by time in hours. For example, a current of 1 ampere for 1 hour is 1 AH, and a current of 5 amperes for 20 hours is 100 AH. Amp-Hr ratings vary with temperature and rate of discharge. Terms such as 5 or 20-Hour Rate indicate that the battery can be discharged steadily over 5 to 20 hours. The ampere hour capacity is measured by how much it puts out before it reaches 100% depth of discharge.
