The amp-hour is a unit of battery energy capacity, equal to the amount of continuous current multiplied by the discharge time, that a battery can supply before exhausting its internal store of chemical energy,and this cannot be measured by VA.

Battery stores charge in the form of chemical energy and then converts it into electrical energy to utilize for a specific time. The amount of available charge is the capacity of a cell or battery which may be expressed in Ah (Ampere-hour). Moreover, in a charged battery, the numbers of molecules are limited to create a flow of electron in electric circuits, so, there must be a limited number of electrons in a cell/battery which they motivate through a circuit tofully discharge. Now we have the option to rate the battery capacity in Number of flowing electrons for a specific time, but, it would be a headache, because there are a vast number of electrons in it. So we have another option (1C (Coulomb) = 6.25 x 1018electrons, or 6,250,000,000,000,000,000 electrons. In addition, 1A (Ampere) = 1 coulomb of electrons per second and, 1h = 3600 Seconds Therefore; 1Ah = (1A) x (3600s) = (C/s) x (3600s) = 3600 C. ? A (1 Ampere) = 1 Coulomb per second = C/s read less

Battery is DC power so in Ah

Let Physics Unite Us All

Ah stands for Ampere hour and it has dimensions of charge as you can see from Q= It , whereas VA would be a unit of electrical power, which hasn"t much relevance for a battery. Don't get me wrong, I'm not at all saying a battery having 100Ah rating means it has charge stored in it; rather the 100Ah...

Good in Mathematics and Civil Engineering(Structures and Soil)

Its actually not the power that is given as the rating but the energy stored in it. Amp-hour is a unit that suggests that this device can provide a certain ampere of current for this many hours in its lifetime.

RPS

Battery Stores Energy , which it delivers at constant Voltage. so technically Ah is VAh ( unit of Energy), while VA is unit of Power not energy.
