Usually not, but it may.

The number of cells depends on the cell voltage, and to get a 12V, 4-cell battery you'd need to use a chemistry that gives a 3V cell voltage - which some Lithium-type primary cells do.

How many series connected cells does a typical 12V storage battery contain?

Twelve volt batteries contain a series of 6 cells in the series.


Can I turn a 9V battery output to 6V 100mA?

No! You need fewer cells for six volts. Most 9 volt batteries have six 1.5 volt cells, but a six volt battery has four 1.5 volt cells. In theory you could open the battery up and install a tap at the fourth cell, but that is pretty hard to do.


How many cells does a 12 volt battery consist of?

A 12 volt automotive battery has six cells.


Why is a 6 volt battery bigger than a 9 volt?

The voltage is set by the number of cells, so a 6 v battery has four cells and a 9 v battery has six. The size of the cells decides the capacity but not the voltage, so four big cells might be bigger than six small ones. The one with bigger cells has a greater amp-hour capacity.


How many cells does a 9 volt battery contain?

6 @ 1.5v each The 9 volt battery is a true battery, containing six cells of 1.5 volts each. Most storage devices that we call batteries(i.e. D-cell, AA-cell, AAA-cell) are not batteries, but cells.


How many cells does a typical 6 volts batery have?

A 6 volt wet battery has 3 cells. A 6 volt dry battery has 4 cells.


Is the battery on a Honda four wheeler a 6 or 12 volt battery?

12 volt


How many cells does a 6 volt battery have?

It depends on what the 6 cells are, but the battery voltage is just 6 times the cell voltage. In a car battery (lead-acid cells) - 12V In a dry-battery (zinc-carbon cells) - 9V


How many series-connceted 2 V cells does a typical 24 V storage battery contain Is it 12 calls or 18 cells?

Twelve 2-volt cells (lead-acid like a car battery) or sixteen 1.5-volt cells will make 24 volts. Also two car batteries in series make 24 v.


What 6volt battery has 32 AA batteries inside?

In the past, the Walgreens brand of 6 volt lantern battery contained 32 carbon zinc AA cells, 8 sets of 4 in series, connected in parallel. Most all 6 volt lantern batteries today contain (4) 1.5 volt 'F' cells, which are same diameter of 'D' cells but are twice as long as 'C' cells, which are the same length as 'AA' cells.


How many cells are in a battery?

AnswerAccording to WikiPedia (http:/en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Rechargeable_battery), the nominal cell voltage of a Lead Acid wet-cell battery is 2.1 volts, this implies there are 6 cells in a 12 volt Lead Acid wet-cell battery.


How do you tell 6 volt golf cart battery from a 12 volt golf cart battery?

By the number of cells. A 12 V battery should consist of 6 cells, each providing about 2 volts. A 12 V battery should consist of 6 cells.
