24V means that the terminals of the fully charged battery will deliver a direct current of 24 volts.
AH refers to the capacity of the battery (the amount of electricity it can store) - 42 AH = 42 Amp Hours
Maintenance free means that there is no need/way to fill up the cells of the battery during its operational life.
No, 12 volt batteries are 12 volts.
Four 12V batteries may not be connected end to end to obtain 36 Volts. But four 12V batteries can be connected end to end to provide 48V and push 36 amps. The actual answer to your question suggests that you drop one 12V battery and use three, not four 12V batteries end to end to obtain 36V.
without knowing exactly the types of batteries you are talking about but generally marine batteries are a higher quality battery and have higher amp hour ratings which basically means they can turn the stater for longer
Virtually all automotive batteries nowadays are nominal " 12V " batteries, but will measure up to 13.6V when fully charged.
With the batteries in series, the alternator provides the same current, and therefore the same charge to all the batteries. The alternator can take no account of any current being drawn from the 12V take off point. Part of the charge current is being fed to the 12V load and not to the batteries. Therefore, the 12-24V batteries are being fully charged while the 0-12V batteries are being partially charged. Over a period of time, the difference between the charge levels will become more obvious.
12V is probably short for 12 volts, the voltage used by regular car batteries. And since 12V can strike a spark, it can be used to start a fire.
y not?
Barely, 24v or36v in series is better
Yes there sure is..
There are a large number of different kinds of 12V batteries available. You will need to be very specific before you begin looking on the internet. Places like Amazon might offer a good starting point.
Voltage? There are generally three voltages on commercial vehicles: 6v (really old trucks), 24v (old diesels, because 12v starters that can crank a big engine are a recent development) and 12v. Most new trucks are 12v. As to the maximum NUMBER of batteries allowed--well, there really isn't one, but semis all have four batteries in them.
Yes, both batteries perform the same, but the 7ah battery holds more charge.
