Replacement battery for childs eletric car

TylerDurden

My daughter has one of those electric cars, the battery seems to have died and I'd like to get a replacement for it. Primarily so we can sell it as she no longer uses it.

See the photo for the battery it has.
I've seen similar batteries for it online but they have a different hr rating, ie this one @ 10Hrs. Is this just the time to charge the battery, does it have any impact other than that ?

The one you linked is also shown as a 20 hour discharge rate in the picture and data sheet, not 10 hours.

I'm not very familiar with sealed lead acid batteries but looking online that time seems to refer to the discharge rate the specified capacity is for (as capacity changes depending on rate).

20 hours seems to be the standard discharge rate, with those rated for 10 hours typically being batteries designed for high discharge, short time applications (power outage backup, car starter batteries).

The only mention of 10 hours in the link is 10 Ampere-Hours which is the capacity. Your current battery is also 10Ah.

Check the dimension of the battery you have there with these.
