2. Lead–acid battery - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Lead–acid_battery

   Consider a battery that has been completely discharged (such as occurs when leaving the car lights on overnight, a current draw of about 6 amps). If it then is given a fast charge for only a few minutes, the battery plates charge only near the interface between the plates and the electrolyte.

3. Automotive battery - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Automotive_battery

   A typical 12 V, 40 Ah lead-acid car battery. An automotive battery, or car battery, is a rechargeable battery that is used to start a motor vehicle.. Its main purpose is to provide an electric current to the electric-powered starting motor, which in turn starts the chemically-powered internal combustion engine that actually propels the vehicle.

4. Jump start (vehicle) - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Jump_start_(vehicle)

   Boosting a dead battery through a battery charger can take anywhere from five to twenty minutes depending on the depth-of-discharge (DOD), health of the vehicle battery, and type of engine (engine displacement). AC power is not usually available for a roadside boost. Jump starters are portable battery devices that allow for jump starting of ...

5. Electric vehicle battery - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Electric_vehicle_battery

   A refurbishing company can sell or reuse the discharged energy from the module to reduce the cost of this process. Robots are being used to increase the safety of the dismantling process. [51] [53] Battery technology is non-transparent and lacks standards.

6. Deep-cycle battery - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Deep-cycle_battery

   A deep-cycle battery powering a traffic signal. A deep-cycle battery is a battery designed to be regularly deeply discharged using most of its capacity. The term is traditionally mainly used for lead–acid batteries in the same form factor as automotive batteries; and contrasted with starter or cranking automotive batteries designed to deliver only a small part of their capacity in a short ...

7. Uninterruptible power supply - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Uninterruptible_power_supply

   If a battery has been completely discharged (e.g. the car lights were left on overnight) and next is given a fast charge for only a few minutes, then during the short charging time it develops only a charge near the interface. The battery voltage may rise to be close to the charger voltage so that the charging current decreases significantly.

8. Exide lead contamination - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Exide_lead_contamination

   From 1920 until 1978, the Electric Storage Battery Company (later ESB, Inc.) operated a lead-acid battery factory on forty acres of land in Crescentville at the intersection of Adams Avenue and Rising Sun Avenue. [52] Robert A. Kehoe wrote a description of it in a letter in 1948, mentioning him seeing "uncontrolled fume [sic]" during a visit. [53]

9. Battery regenerator - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Battery_regenerator

   As a battery is discharged the density of lead sulfate in solution increases. In common designs, it reaches a critical density when discharged to about 75% depth of discharge, or below. [2] For instance, a 12V battery with a 100 ampere hour (Ah) capacity will reach this density when 25 Ah (300 Wh) or more have been drawn from the battery. At ...
