Batteries are specified by its charge capacity, or C-rating.
For example, a common 9V battery might be rated at 600 mAh.
This means that such 9V battery might be expected to last for 1 hour while delivering 600 mA.
Use the C-rating as a guide only since this can change with current load, temperature and variation in chemistry (and increasing battery internal resistance). Moreover, you can expect the run-time to be lower when you increase the current drawn. For example, a battery supplying a load at 10C will not run for 1/10 hour (6 mins) but somewhat less than 1/10 hour.
