you have the use time figured correctly
however it 'ALWAYS' takes more energy than what was used to replace the used wattage aka ampHrs and its not linear
it won't be 10amps for 5 hours, it will start out higher amps and decrease/get less the closer the battery gets to being fully charged
the reversing of the chemical reaction that makes electricity uses power while doing the conversion/restoration
thats why you want a 30-45 amp charger
it will start out high and go down,
you will get charged faster
a 10amp charger will take 7 to 12 hrs to get too full charge
replacing 50 ampHrs
it will start at 10 and go down, making for a long charge cycle
