    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 ...

  3. 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.

  4. 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.

    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.

  7. Charge cycle - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Charge_cycle

    Discharging the battery fully before recharging may be called "deep discharge"; partially discharging then recharging may be called "shallow discharge". A "charge cycle" is not a unit of time; the length of time spent charging or discharging does not affect the number of charge cycles. [1] Each battery is affected differently by charge cycles ...

    A teacher in a school district near the Nebraska border is being accused of banning the word short for charisma along with over two dozen slang words popular among Gen Alpha — kids born after 2009.

  9. 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 ...
