How do you determine the Watts of a battery?

What is more important in a battery?

1. Ah

2. Cranking amps

3. Watts

^^^ can you put those three in order of importance.

if I was to take a guess at it I would say

1. Watts

2. Ah

3. Cranking amps

Finally would this particular battery be good for car audio? I am only going on the fact that it is a 93Ah battery.

Ah is good to determine extended constant drain on the battery. this is a good daily jam session rating

6 cells so you can figure watts

cranking power is a burst rating not really useful for daily. more suitable for a burp tho

6 cells x 350 = 2100 watts

93ah

83.00 and free shipping sounds like a good deal on this battery.

got the batteries in yesterday, they all rested around 12.9V, and were in nice shape. They were used, but must have been in a big UPS system do to the markings on the bottom part of the casing. Load tested the with a 400A tester, and they popped good. Put them on a 2A trickle charge for a few hours and were resting at 13.3V. gonna put them in my burban this weekend for some fun
