Basi question.Got a leisure battery,it's charged to full 12 volts but
how can I tell how many amps it holds? thanks.


It should be marked in Ah - amp hours. Usually measured at the 20 hour
rate.
So a 40 Ah battery should last 20 hours with a 2 amp load.

BTW, if you load the battery and it's only reading 12 volts, it's not
fully charged.
