HOW MANY PLATES DOES MY BATTERY HAVE, HOW DOES NUMBER OF PLATES MATTER? WHAT IMPACT DOES NUMBER OF PLATES HAVE ON VOLTAGE?
You may be surprised by the fact that each cell of battery produces approximately 2.1V current regardless of of the size & thickness of the plates. A 12 V automobile battery generally contain six cells connected in series so as to produce 12.1 volts. However, more number of plates grouped together allow a great amount of electricity to be supplied. In simpler words, more surface area means the battery can produce more current.
