How much extra baking powder can you add to have the batter be lighter How much is too much?
The question cannot be answered as it is written. The proper amount of baking powder depends on what you are trying to bake. Biscuits require more while cookies require less. More baking powder can cause the dough or batter to rise too quickly then fall, resulting in denser baked goods instead of lighter baked goods. Without a thorough knowledge of baking and the function of different ingredients, it is much smarter to follow a proven recipe without changes.

Why your cake does not rise?
The first thought is that one may have forgot to add baking powder, or not enough baking powder or the baking powder was bad. Baking powder is perishable. To test a batch, add 1 teaspoon to ½ cup hot water. If it doesn't bubble, throw it out.
What is the difference between a single acting baking powder and a double acting baking powder?
Not completely. Double acting baking powder exhibits a chemical reaction in two phases; the first when a liquid is added to the powder (such as when you add milk to turn a dry cake mix into a batter), the second when it is heated (i.e cooked in the oven). This makes it ideally suited to batters which you want to make in advance, but still need to rise. Regular baking powder only reacts when the liquid is added, meaning that it's not so good if you need to make a batter in advance. (By the time you get around to cooking it, the batter will not rise effectively). However unless you need to make a batter in advance of cooking it, both types of baking powder are essentially interchangeable.
