 +Note:  most deep cycle manufacturer's rate capacity at C/20, due to Peukert effect on lead chemistries.((Lithium doesn't not have a significant Peukert effect.  Capacity measured by C/20 and by amp-counting will be nearly identical)).  In other words, a 100Ah battery will deliver 100A with a 5A load.  See table at bottom for other load levels
