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.
