ampere-hours

Charge storage measurement

Ampere-hours measure electrical charge—the amount of current flowing over time.

A battery rated at 100 ampere-hours can theoretically deliver one ampere for 100 hours, or 100 amperes for one hour.

The unit appears on batteries to indicate capacity: This deep-cycle battery has 200 ampere-hours.

Often abbreviated Ah.
