Revision 1 

 

Example – Ampere-hour capacity: a battery with an ampere-hour capacity of 100 ampere-hours 

can deliver 

5 ampere for 20 hours before it is completely discharged. 

 

To determine the battery ampere-hour capacity: 

1)  Determine how many watts each piece of AC equipment (TV, light bulbs, etc) 

consumes. This can normally be found on the product label. If only the current draw is 

given, multiply the current draw by 115 to get the watt consumption. 

2)  Estimate the time (in hours) that each piece of equipment will be running between 

battery charging cycles. 

3)  Calculate the total watt-hours of energy consumption (power in Watts x operating time 

in hours) using the average power consumption and the total estimated running time (in 

hours). Power x Operating Time = Watt-Hours. 

4)  Divide the watt-hours by 10 to determine how many battery (12 volt) ampere-hours will 

be consumed.
