I am purchasing a ride on toy for my daughter. One toy refers to a 12 volt battery and the other toy referances that it is 18 watts. I am concerned the one referring to watts may not have enough power or endurance. Is there a significant difference between the two?|||The battery for ride-on toys almost always come together with the toy so you shouldn't have to worry about it. Even if you are buying one used and have to find a new battery, buying the battery from the official replacement line will keep you safe. i.e. fisher price toy with a Fisher Price battery. In the case of high quality products like the Fisher Price power wheels line, the batteries are internally fused so even if 18 watts is above the rated limit, it will stop on its own rather than overheat and explode. So let's assume the worst case and you have a toy that needs a replacement battery and you want to buy a generic replacement battery. You have 3 numbers to follow in your case, 12 volts, 18 watts and 1.5 amps. If your battery absolutely has to be 12 volts. Once you've found a 12 volt battery with the right connector for your toy, make sure it is rated for at least 18 watts or 1.5 amps. If you see a rating for a number that is higher than 18 watts or higher than 1.5 amps, you are safe. Either parameter is fine.|||You're talking about two entirely different things here. 12 volts is simply the voltage of the battery and has no bearing AT ALL on the power rating or endurance of the toy.
18 watts is the power rating of the toy - whether it is powerful enough for its intended purpose depends on a number of other factors.
