Default Forklift battery info

Randy fired this volley in
:
Each cell has alternating lead plates with a separator inbetween them,
one plate forms the positive and one plate forms the negative, these
plates are laid up side by side until a cell of 2 volts is created.

............
More clear?


It was, Randy, until you said that!

Just two plates =2V. So does 20 plates. So does 200.

The number of plates per cell affects the surface area, which in turn
affects the ampacity of the cell. The number of plates in parallel has
no effect whatsoever on the voltage of the cell.
