If you plan to charge a cell phone than 10,000 mAH (10AH) is more than enough
If you plan on starting a car you need peak amps.. (Cranking amps) and you need as many as you can get.. I suggest 1,000 amps but my next to the last one was 900 My current one is smaller.. But I bought it for other things.
If I need to jump start I can either 1: PUSH the button (motor home) or 2: Pull one of my Marine/Deep cycles and use it.
You don't need "...as many (amps) as you can get...", you only need enough to start the engine. :)
