in my camper van ive got 2 x 110amp/h batterys to run the lights etc.

so have i got this right a 110amp/h battery will last 1 hour if using 110 amps and if using 1 amp will last 110 hours?

so when the radio, dvd player and 2 x 5 inch screens and the 2 outside awning lights i had a 5 amp drain.

so 5 amps divided by 220 amps/h equals 44 hours before both batterys will go flat?

does this seem right and logical?

thanks

no longer a series, but still 1.3 turbo.

Hi,
That's the theory, but the AH rating it calculated to when the battery is dead flat, most electronic stuff will shut down at 10v.

Malta (Ex. Scotland)

And I'd assume that lights and such will dim as the batterys wear down
