BEHIND THE RESULT
How the calculation works
Ah = Wh ÷ V. Wh = Ah × V. 1 kWh = 1,000 Wh.
Compare batteries in Wh when their voltages differ. A higher Ah rating alone does not always mean more energy.
A worked example
1,000 Wh at 12 V is approximately 83.33 Ah. In the other direction, 100 Ah at 12 V is 1,200 Wh.
What this estimate can’t tell you
Uses nominal voltage. Actual terminal voltage varies with chemistry, state of charge and load.
