I actually replace 12 Volt, 110 Amp-Hour lead-acid batteries on my job,
regularly.  They are approx. 12" X 12" X 12" and are around 80 LBS!  I
believe they are incorrectly stating 'AH' here, and actually mean 'CCA'
(cold-cranking-amps).  These are two very different rating numbers, and
don't directly relate to one another equally.
