4amp it says i assume that is a hour. Of course the one i'm acctually looking at is aroud 10-15. 10amp hours is 16 hour day is 160 amp hours in a 16 hour period. Right? Am i wrong. If so please put me back into place. So i should be able to run at least my air and pc and a 32 inch with direct tv attached and what not for a good while
NO, NO, NO!!!
4 amps is the instantaneous draw. To get Amp-Hr, you multiply by the number of hours that it's running, so if it's on 75% of the time, that's 72amp-hr at 240v. To convert to 12v (battery power), 1440amp-hr.
This is not meant to be mean but if you don't understand these basics, you need to take a class in the basics of electrical systems before building or having someone else build your system.
