How to Convert Faradays to Ampere-Hours
To convert from faradays (F) to ampere-hours (Ah), you multiply the charge in faradays by 26.801. This conversion is derived from the fact that 1 F = 96485.3321 C, and 1 Ah = 3600 C. For more information about faradays as a unit of measurement, visit our faradays page.
Formula
Ampere-Hours = Faradays × 26.801
or
Ah = F × 26.801
Examples
- 1 F = 1 × 26.801 = 26.801 Ah
- 0.001 F = 0.001 × 26.801 = 0.026801 Ah
- 0.01 F = 0.01 × 26.801 = 0.26801 Ah
- 0.1 F = 0.1 × 26.801 = 2.6801 Ah
