Doesn't work like that or my 590CCA battery would be 110Ah... Its not, its rated 60Ah on the label.

You cannot work out Ah from CCA, ever. I have a 7Ah lead acid battery capable of 300CCA... The formula just doesn't work.

I bought an Interstate battery that was rated only in CCA and I asked the Interstate dealer how does he know the Ah rating. He invited me to look on the counter where there was this formula printed with 2 inches letters: Ah = CCA * 0.19

It made sense to me at that time to convert it like that, but, maybe you are also right. Maybe that formula is right for "his" batteries? only for the type of deep cycle batteries he is selling?
