     HOW TO
    Calculate Your Equipment's Daily Load

    Equipment Power Draw given in DC Amps

    1.25 Amp continous (24 hours/day) load at 12 Volts DC (VDC)

    DC Voltage 12VDC
    Listed Equipment Power Draw 1.25 Amps
    Duty Cycle 24 Hours

    1.25 X 24 = 30 amp-hours per day (Ah/day) @ 12VDC

    Equipment Power Draw given in Watts

    50 Watts continous (24 hours/day) load at 12 Volts DC (VDC)

    Equipment Wattage Draw  50 Watts 
    Duty Cycle  24 Hours 
    50 X 24 = 1200 watt-hours (wh/day)

    Watt Hours Per Day (wh/day) 1200 wh/day
    Desired System Voltage 12VDC
    1200 wh/day /12VDC = 100 amp-hours per day (Ah/day) @ 12VDC
