The power output of an inverter is usually measured in watts. To calculate the wattage, use the formula: Watts = Volts x Amps. For a standard 12V battery, a 100Ah capacity translates to about 1200 watts (12V x 100A). For example, a 600W load would run ~2 hours at 12V, factoring in 90% inverter efficiency. Always check your battery's voltage. . A 100Ah battery can, in theory, supply 100 amps for 1 hour, or 10 amps for 10 hours, and so on. The actual usable energy depends on: For a 12V 100Ah battery: That means you can run a 120W device for 10 hours (roughly), or a 1000W device for just over 1 hour— if the. . Assuming a 12V battery: Wh=200 Ah×12 V=2400 Wh Thus, a 200 Ah battery at 12 volts has a capacity of 2400 watt-hours. This metric is vital for determining how long a battery can power specific devices and for evaluating the overall energy storage capabilities.
