What do Battery Ratings numbers mean?
Example: I have a table/chart that shows one 6-volt battery is rated 115min/75amps 225 ah.
Another is rated 125 min/75 amps 235 ah.
What do the numbers mean? How should these 2 batteries compare in terms of performance & longevity?

I have a 48-volt system with 6 8-v batteries.

CR235 6V 235AH 6 235ah @ 20Hr / 195ah @ 5 Hr 125@75 260 181 267 30

Basic formular for measuring the lenth of time at the two uses of measure. The first is 235 Ah of current for 20 hr Of time?
The secound is a 5 hour ratting of 195 ah for five hours.
The higher the ah the longer the battery will hold a charge.

To answer the simple question about driving time the better the battery the longer driving time you will have.
