Lead-Acid cells are generally considered to deliver 2 volts, so you'd need 24 cells to get 48 volt. Easiest way of doing that would be to use two 24V batteries as used in truck and heavy vehicles.

How do you replenish acid in batteries?
On standard unsealed lead-acid batteries, just unscrew the caps and refill if needed. This cannot be done on sealed lead-acid or gel cell lead-acid batteries. Dry cell batteries don't contain acid.
Of the six separate batteries in a typical car battery each one is called an?
Cell. Each cell is wired in series with the next one. Lead-acid cells produce 2 volts each, thus for 6 cells we get 12 volts.
How many volts in three AAA batteries?
Depends on the cell chemistry, which determines the cell voltage. And the degree of charging. Can be anything from 3x1.2 to 3x3.6.
Wet-cell batteries are typically used to supply electrical energy to?
autos lead acid batteries are wet cell
What is the output voltage of a typical size D NiCad cell?
Typical D cell batteries NiCad or otherwise are 1.2 volts.
Term is used to indicate charged solutions contained in wet cell batteries?
Wet cell batteries contain liquids called electrolytes, such as sulfuric acid.. Dry cell batteries contain no liquid but are charged with alkaline or lithium.
What is the voltage of a cell in a lead-acid battery?
Each cell of a modern lead-acid battery should have an average voltage of about 2 volts but, depending on the cell's condition and state of charge, the exact voltage at any time may be somewhere in a range from about 1.8 volts (when it is almost fully discharged) and 2.25 volts when it is fully charged.
Why do two 12-volt batteries hooked up measure more than 12 volts?
If two 12-volt batteries are hooked up in series, they should measure about 24 volts. However, if they are hooked up in parallel, the voltage should be about 12 volts (while current increases). The voltage on the batteries is an estimate from the point of being fully charged...same as with dry-cell batteries.
Are lead acid batteries now replaced by dry cells of the same capabilities?
No, automobiles are still using wet cell batteries.
Why is car battery called a battery?
Its called a battery because it is a group of cells. In the case of a conventional lead-acid battery each cell produces about 2 volts. To obtain 12 volts, 6 of these cells must be combined, forming a battery. Sometimes the term battery is a misnomer. In the case of 1.5v alkaline "batteries" they are technically just one cell.
How many AA batteries make 6 volts?
It depends upon the chemistry. Alkaline cells generate 1.5 Volts each, so six of them would yield 9 Volts, whereas six rechargeable cells would only yield 7.5 Volts, since each cell produces 1.25 Volts.
Can you wire a 12 volt DC adaptor into a machine that takes 4 D batteries without ruining it?
Four D batteries in series produce nominally 6 volts (1.5 volts per cell). A 12-volt supply may damage the machine built to run on 6 volts.
