Convert mAh/Ah to Watt Hours
Insert milliamp hours (mAh) or amp hours (Ah) and voltage (V), it will automatically calculate Watt hours (Wh).
| Application | Capacité | Tension | Energy |
|---|---|---|---|
| RV Battery | 200Ah | 12V | 2 400 variables |
| Stockage solaire | 300Ah | 48V | 14,400Wh |
| Système marin | 150Ah | 36V | 5,400Wh |
mAh/Ah to Wh Conversion Formula Explained
Équation de conversion de base
Watt-hours (Wh) = Amp-hours (Ah) × Voltage (V) → Wh = Ah x V
For milliamp-hours: Wh = (mAh ÷ 1000) × V
Exemples de calcul pratiques
| Application | mAh/Ah | Voltage | Résultat |
| Solar Power Systems | 200Ah | 48V | 9,600Wh |
| Smartphone Batteries | 5000mAh | 3.7 V | 18.5Wh |
| EV Batteries | 230Ah | 350V | 80,500Wh |
Why Watt-Hours Matter More Than Amp-Hours
Consumers often focus on mAh or Ah ratings when comparing batteries. However, watt-hours (Wh) better measure energy storage capacity as they account for voltage differences.
Understanding watt-hours (Wh) is critical for:
- Compliance: Airlines restrict batteries >100Wh
- System Design: Solar/Wind installations require precise Wh calculations
- Cost Optimization: Compare battery performance across voltages (12V/24V/48V)

FAQ
Why Can’t I Directly Compare mAh/Ah Ratings?
Voltage significantly affects energy content. For example, 5,000mAh at 3.7V equals 18.5Wh, while 5,000mAh at 12V equals 60Wh, which is 3.24 times more energy.
How Accurate Are Manufacturer mAh/Ah Ratings?
Our tests show:
- Power banks: 60-85% efficiency
- Smartphone batteries: 90-95% accuracy
- EV batteries: ±2% tolerance
What’s The Military-grade Conversion Method?
Special forces use the formula: Wh = (mAh × V) ÷ 1000 × derating factor, with a derating factor of 0.7 for extreme conditions.
