The CCA of batteries varies from one battery to the next. Normally the higher CCA the more the battery costs. Just buy one that is at least as big as the OEM battery.

<< >>

CCA is not equivalent to ampere-hours. One ampere-hour is equal to 3600 coulombs (ampere-seconds), the electric charge transferred by a steady current of one ampere for one second. A coulomb is one ampere times one second. An ampere (and coulomb) is 6.241 × 1018 electrons in one second passing a point in a circuit.

CCA is the max number of amps a car battery can deliver in each second until it is discharged below a certain amount of electrons.

So how many amp-hours in a car battery? It depends--on the size of the battery. Larger cells mean more amp-hours stored in each cell.

Depends on the quality of the battery. You can usually get about twice the life they are rated at. A one year battery will go for two and so on. I had one better grade last for 8 years but that is unusual. There are other factors that make it impossible to say for sure. Type of vehicle, how much drain is on it, how good the charging system is, weather, cold is harder on them than heat.

It can take several centuries before a car battery decomposes. Even after that, there may still be some components of the batter that may never decompose at all.

How do you correctly install a amp toggle switch in 1995 VW Jetta?

the same way you'd install any toggle switch. run your lines from the battery and the ignition to the power and remote switches on the amp. if you follow the directions on the box and the amp doesn't shut off because you've inadvertantly hooked the remote switch to the clock power or some constant source, then take whatever switch you have and simply add it inline between the battery and the amp. blaow. have a gin and tonic and sit in the car and wwitch your amp off and on. it'll be awesome.


In cold weather your car doesn't seem to start when parked for 5 hours at a time you noticed the clock is reset ifwhen it does start you have to turn the key many times before it would start after dri?

sounds like you need a NEW battery once a battery is 2 to 3 years old the cold will kill a battery


Why won't my 2007 Chrysler pacifica won't start its cold out and the lights was left on all night?

Because you left the lights on all night. This drains the battery. Connect a battery charger and wait about 3 hours. Then the car might start. If it does not start buy a new battery or a new car whichever you prefer.battery juice is gone.


What happens when you put the positive cable on the negative battery post?

Nothing unless you connect the negative cable to the positive post. When you do that you will destroy the battery and it may possible explode. You may also damage the electronics in the vehicle.
