What is the Amp Hour (Ah) rating?
An amp-hour is one amp for one hour, or 10 amp for 1/10 of an hour and so forth. It is amp X hours. If you have something that pulls 20 amp, and you use it for 20 minutes, then the amp-hours used would be 20 (amp) X .333 (hours), or 6.67 AH. The accepted AH rating time period for batteries used in solar electric and backup power systems (and for nearly all deep cycle batteries) is the "20 hour rate". This means that it is discharged down to 10.5 volts over a 20 hour period while the total actual amp-hours it supplies is measured. Sometimes ratings at the 6 hour rate and 100 hour rate are also given for comparison and for different applications. The 6-hour rate is often used for industrial batteries, as that is a typical daily duty cycle. Sometimes the 100 hour rate is given just to make the battery look better than it really is, but it is also useful for figuring battery capacity for long-term backup amp-hour requirements.
What is an OHM?
OHM is a unit for measuring electrical resistance or impedance within an electrical circuit.
Is there a maximum temperature for charging lead acid batteries?
When charging lead acid batteries, the temperature should not exceed 120°F. At this point the battery should be taken off charger and allowed to cool before resuming the charger process.
What Are The Different Types of Rechargeable Battery Chemistries & Technologies?
Batteries in portable consumer devices (laptops and notebooks, camcorders, cellular phones, etc.) are principally made using either Nickel Cadmium (Ni-Cd), Nickel Metal Hydride (Ni-MH) or Lithium Ion (Li-ion) technologies. Each type of rechargeable battery technology has its own unique characteristics.
