How do batteries affect things?

How does the type of battery affect how long it will last?

This is not necessarily true. Usually the brand of battery is not as important as the technology used. An alkaline battery should last longer than a regular carbon battery, no matter what the brand.


Does the number of batteries affect the speed of a motor?

If they are connected in series the voltages will add and, theoretically, proportionally speed up the motor.


How does battery acid affect the environment?

Battery acid affects the environment because batteries are filled with chemicals that leak into the water system and animals die because they drink.

Where can you get a battery bank?

A battery bank is a group of batteries, wired together, to get the voltage and amp hour reserve power required for the installation. There are 2 types of circuits used to wire up these batteries, parallel circuits and series circuits, used to build the battery bank. For our example we will use 12v 33ah batteries :) to make the math easy.Simply multiple batteries can be wired together to add either amperage or voltage. You can't add both at the same time.A Series connection adds voltage, not amp hour rating. To group batteries in a series connection, hook them up in a line, positive of battery a to negative of battery b, like so...to load to loadWith 3 batteries at 12v 33ah, hooked up in series, your battery bank would have the following characteristics.36 volts at 33 ampere hours.A parallel connection of the same three batteries would increase the ampere hours, not the voltage. This is how you increase the run time of a system and would look like this.To Load To LoadThis battery bank would net 12 volts at 36 ampere hours.If you want a 36 volt install, at 100 ah, it would require 3 strings of 3 batteries to make the 36 volts. Then those strings would be wired together parallel to increase the ah.Remember to account for wire voltage drops when you raise the amps up. This is a bunch of physics and math that determines heat and drag. To do things the easy way, use the wire calculator on the bottom of this page.http://www.bdbatteries.com/wire.phpRemember to buy high quality batteries as they have low internal resisitance. High internal resistance creates heat, wastes power, and will negatively affect larger battery bank efficiency. UL puts their mark on these quality batteries.http://www.bdbatteries.com/ul.php


Does extreme summer heat affect car battery life?

Yes. Summertime heat can affect your battery worse than the winter cold. Most batteries fail in the month of July than in January, because of the heat. Heat is a killer of all batteries and high temperatures cannot always be avoided. This is the case with a battery inside a laptop, a starter battery under the hood of a car and stationary batteries in a tin shelter under the hot sun. As a guideline, each 8°C (15°F) rise in temperature cuts the life of a sealed lead acid battery in half.


Would frequent usage of overdrive mode affect the life span of the batteries?

Overdrive requires more power and decreases the life of a battery so avoid overdrive to increase the battery life.


Are the lights in your school connected in series current or parallel current?

Overhead lights are typically connected in parallel. If they were connected in series, then, if one light went out, all of the lights would go out. Think of Christmas lights, they are connected in series. When one of the lights burns out, the whole string of lights goes out.


How will a single burned-out bulb affect the strings of lights if each light is attached to its own wire?

If by "its own wire" you mean they are connected in parallel, then one bulb won't affect the others.
