FAQ

What is the conversion factor from A·h to C?
1 A·h equals 3600 C. To convert, multiply the value in ampere-hours by 3600.
How do I convert 1 A·h to C?
1 A·h = 3600 C. For any value, multiply by 3600.
How do I convert C back to A·h?
Divide by the same factor — or equivalently, multiply by 0.0002777778. So 1 C = 0.000277778 A·h.
When would I need to convert ampere-hour to coulomb?
Electric-charge conversions between A·h and C appear in battery capacity specification (A·h, mA·h), electroplating and electrochemistry (coulombs of charge transferred), and capacitor energy calculations. 1 A·h is exactly 3600 C — the conversion is a linear factor and does not depend on voltage, current profile or chemistry.
Is the conversion exact?
Yes. Both A·h and C are defined by exact SI relationships, so the displayed factor is exact (any rounding shown is only for display).
