Lead Acid Battery Weights

Post by GEOFF.PAULINE » Fri Oct 23, 2015 11:18 am

Hi all.
I just read an article on another forum about Batteries being sold on line. The Forum and retailers are not important at this stage.

Being advertised are 130 A/H batteries weighing 33 kg and the measurements are the size of a 100 A/H

It is being said on the other forum that this is impossible as each one a/h for a lead acid battery equals 0.3 kg in weight.

Therefore it must weigh at least 39 kg ( 130 times 0.3) and larger in physical size

I'm beginning to suspect the warning that it must be only 105 A/h at the most is correct.

Interesting situation ?

Cheers . Geoff.
