A D cell battery has a voltage output of 1.5 volts, while a 9 volt battery produces about 9 volts. This is just the potential energy though. D cells provide far more current for a longer time then a 9 volt battery. In terms of overall power output, a D cell in give you many times more power than a 9 volt battery. Physical size, in this case is a good indicator as the material inside is the same.

No. The energy in watt-hours is estimated as the voltage multiplied by the ampere-hour capacity of the cell or battery.

A 1.5 v alkaline D-cell with a capacity of 10 amp-hours can supply 15 watt-hours (actually less because the voltage reduces steadily). Six of those in series can supply 90 watt-hours, while many smaller 9-volt batteries have a much lower energy capacity.

It has much more current and less voltage. Total energy is voltage times current. D cells have more available energy than a nine volt.

Can you use a 12 volt charger to charge 14.4 volt battery?

Yes. The voltage of charger has to be slightly higher than the battery for it to be able to charge the battery.


Will an 18 volt charger hurt a 14 volt battery?

Yes, an 18 volt charger can damage a 14 volt battery. This is because the wattage for the battery needs to be equal to the wattage of the charger.


Can a 12-volt solar battery charger charge a 36-volt battery?

No, a 12-volt charger cannot charge a 36-volt battery. The electrical potential difference across the leads of a charger must exceed the electrical potential difference across the terminals of any battery it is expected to charge. And 12 volts is much less than 36 volts.WHY?The 36-volt battery would require at least 39.3 volts to get to a float charge. This would charge the battery to 80% quickly, and then take a logarithmic period of time to finish the battery. To actually charge the 36-volt battery correctly would require roughly 43.2 volts, but if we can't get 39, this is irrelevant.The 12-volt charger has no chance.The answer above is correct; there is no way the 12-volt charger can charge a 36-volt battery. However, the voltages given apply only to lead-acid batteries. They would be different for nickel metal hydride or lithium cells. You still need a charger with more voltage that the battery voltage in any case.


What 12 volt battery is best to replace 6 volt battery bank and retain ample reserve capacity?

If your load runs on 6 volts, you cannot replace it with a 12 volt battery. You will be exceeding the voltage rating of your load and will start a fire.If you want more amps (capacity) then you can wire more 6 volt batteries in parallel with the first.


How long will a 12 volt 150ah battery run a 2 amp load?

The charging time will depend on how much of a charge was left in the battery and on the charger you use to charge the battery. The more energy you have to put back in it, the longer it will take for a given charger. And some chargers will be able to deliver more current than others. This will result in a higher charging rate, and a lower elapsed time for the charging cycle.

Does a 9 volt battery have more power than a 6 volt battery?

Power or energy cannot be measured in volts. The only thing you can say is one - the 9 volt battery - has a higher voltage than the other, the 6 volt battery. If you are asking about the power or energy contained in a battery, then the amount iof energy it can supply depends mostly on its physical size that is determined by the battery "type".


Does a 9 volt battery has more voltage than a d battery?

yes more voltage

Why do they say six volt golf cart battery is better than 12 volt deep sycle marine battery for storage?

Buying a six volt battery is better than 12 volt. If you buy the 6 volt takes up less power so it holds more.


Would the battery damage if the charger volt is bigger than the battery volt needed?

Yes


What provides more energy to a circuit a 1.5 volt cell or a 9 volt battery?

A "D-size" carbon-zinc cell at 100 mA would have about ten times as much "energy" as a 9V carbon-zinc at 8mA. A battery in the AAA series would have about the same energy as a 9V, which should not be surprising since a D is 10 time larger than a AAA.


Can you charge an 8.4 volt battery on a 7.2 volt battery?

No. It requires more that 8.4 volts to charge a 8.4 volt battery. If the 8.4 volt battery is discharged to less than 7.2 volts then it might charge up to 7.2 volts but no higher. Once the voltages are the same then current stops flowing and charging stops.


Can you charge a 9 volt battery with a 12 volt charger?

no, there is a high probability that it will explode
