Hereof, how long will a 40ah battery last?
Long answer: If the power output was not at 12v, then wewouldreverse the power equation to do 12*40 = 480WH.This meansthe battery can provide 480 Watts for 1 hour.40AH(Amp Hours)/4.16Amps = 9.6 hours, or 9 hours and36minutes.
Simply so, how long will a 200ah battery last?
The 200AH battery can feed 200 Amps for 1 hour,or100 Amps for 2 hours, or 10 amp for 20 hours.
Though not designed for deep-cycle applicationswithoutthe car's engine running, a typical 450 watt-hourcarstarting battery should be able to safely power aportableDC 1.5-amp TV/DVD player for about 12 hours or a31″flat screen (156-watts) for about 45-60 minutes and stillbe ableto start the car's engine.
