âI was quite shocked at the scope of the embezzlement,â he said. The Fall of California Democratic Campaign Treasurer Kinde Durkee Christine Pelisek March 28, 2012. But he was an enabler of the CEO's bad behavior, which I believe is a direct result of the firm's size and scope.
A 120 amp alternator in a typical modern vehicle can safely deliver 70% of that current continuously (84 amps). So say with the fan on medium, lights, ignition, small charging current to a full battery, etc there is a draw of about 45 amps. That leaves say 39 amps (550 Watts) of extra power available.
Amp Hours, or Ah, is the capacity of the battery. How much current a battery can delivery starting a car is called cold cranking amps. A deep cycle marine battery will typically be more than 40Ah. A 40Ah car battery at 50% charge will more than likely start your car in fair weather.Cold weather is another story. So, to get a completely dead car battery to 50% - 20Ah-would be maybe two days of full sunlight-with only a 50% charge, or about 12.2 Volts.t will take forever and a day to charge a deeply discharged deep cycle battery.......... consider that a small 110v battery charger is putting out 3-5 amps (or 3 x 110 =330 Watts) and the alternator on a car is putting out 20 to 50 amps at 14 volts (280 to 730 Watts).
