It's a different (and I think confusing) way of stating what we call "reserve capacity".

And I"m familiar with the two measurements, one at 0F and one at 32F.
See post 41.

The idea of my post was to include as little as needed, as the language barrier is obviously the problem here.
All the guy REALLY wanted to know, as I figured out after several posts, was if that battery met specs. My first visit to the link, I missed the chart I got those number from, and I did not think it was the right battery.

Upon returning to the site (And reading about this European amp-hour rating, which is required by law in the EU but not even talked about in the USA, I caught on.)
I am now totally lost in what you are saying, I see the same figures and units.
Reserve capacity is differently stated ?

Battery Capacity.
Battery capacity is shown as xxAh, Multiply Reserve Capacity by .6 to obtain the battery capacity.


These are all explained in my post of a few years ago. Read it, there will be a test on Monday.

Remember an amp is an amp.
