Hi full_mosey,
To me 60% of the amp hours would be 60 amps on a 100 amp-hour battery. At 12.8 volts that works out to about 768 watts. I guess I don't follow the logic.

So 60 watts per 100 amp-hours, not 60% of the amp-hours.
Actually, that is 60% of battery AHs.
120/200=.6, 180/300=.6; all 60%.
.6 * 440 = 264, 264/440 = 60%, or 60W per 100 AHs.
It is dimensionless - 100 amp hours. Strip amp hours and it is 100. Times 60 percent gets 60. Arbitrarily add on the units watts. Or just a ratio of 60 watts to every 100 amp hours.
But is it the right number for golf cart batteries? I know it is far more than I need to equalize my AGMs the way Deka prescribes.
I think the ability to equalize is an important threshold.
