Sure, let's say you have a typical car battery with a capacity of 60 amp-hours (Ah).
And let's assume you have a small refrigerator that consumes about 100 watts of power when running.
To calculate how long the battery can power the refrigerator, we need to convert the power consumption from watts to amps.
Power (watts) = Voltage (volts) × Current (amps)
Assuming a car battery voltage of 12 volts:
100 watts / 12 volts = 8.33 amps
Now, we can determine the approximate runtime:
60 amp-hours / 8.33 amps ≈ 7.2 hours
So, with a fully charged 60 Ah car battery, you could run the refrigerator for approximately 7.2 hours before the battery is completely drained. However, it's important to note that factors such as battery age, temperature, and other loads on the battery can affect actual performance.
3.5 or GPT-4? I can run the latter if need be.
