12 volt 10 Amp Hour

Please see the battery on this page...

Does 12 volt 10 Amp Hour mean the battery could provide up to 10 amps of power for 1 hour?

Thanks,
William

Yes that is theoritically what you can get. 10 amps for 1 hour or 1 amp for 10 hours or any other combination.

Thank you.

How many amps would something like this pair of lights typically use per hour? Can that be estimated based on the watts?

Replacing ceiling fan - wiring problem!

R

rcknrbn on Aug 07, 2004

I've removed an old ceiling fan from my den's vaulted ceiling and didn't pay much attention to the old wiring pattern. I have an existing dual switch on the wall, one for the fan operation, one for the light operation. My replacement fan has the standard white, black and blue (for the light kit). I crawled back into the attic to hook up the wires and got very confused. There are three wires coming into the electrical box in the attic where the old fan was hooked up: white, brown and a unshielded copper ground. I traced the wires back to the wall switch which is a dual switch. There is a brown wire providing 120v to the dual switch. From the dual switch, there is a white coming off the top switch and brown coming off the bottom switch. These are the white and brown going up to the attic along with the unshielded copper. When you flip both switches to 'on', the white is hot with 120v and the brown is hot with 120v. I have to assume the old wiring pattern was white from the wall going to black on the fan (hot), brown from the wall going to blue on the fan (hot for the fan lights) and the unshielded copper being hooked to the white on the fan? Someone help me out with my thinking. Shouldn't I have 3 wires (white, black and brown) plus unshield copper coming from the wall into the attic? Thanks! MarkRead More
