Lead Calcium battery is the same as lead acid battery. In the garden varieties of lead acid batteries the positive and negative plates are made of lead with a tiny percentage of antimony. Batteries with lead calcium alloy plates reduce problems of overcharging, water loss, outgassing and self-discharge and this is usually found in maintenance-free batteries.

Is a lead acid car battery the same as a 9 volt alkaline battery?
No, a lead acid battery is a wet cell battery and a 9 volt alkaline battery is a dry cell battery.
Is a lead storage battery the same as lead acid batteries?
Generally, yes, they are the same. The term "lead storage battery" is a bit incorrect, but it conveys the idea that the battery in question is a lead-acid storage battery. These storage batteries are the ones we commonly find in vehicles. With sulfuric acid and water in the electrolyte, and lead and lead dioxide for electrodes, this battery, while having a low energy-to-weight ratio, can deliver some very high surge current, which is what the doctor ordered to start said vehicles.
Is sulfuric acid the same as battery acid?
Well, honey, technically speaking, sulfuric acid is the main component in most car batteries, so yeah, it's a big player in what you might call "battery acid." But if you're asking if they're exactly the same thing, well, not quite. Battery acid usually refers to a diluted form of sulfuric acid used in car batteries, so it's like saying a margarita is the same as straight tequila - similar, but not quite.
What is a drained lead-acid battery?
depends if its dry lead acid battery then it has to be replaced because all acid dryed out and no longer will help battery hold charge, if wet lead acid battery same thing all liquid acid dryed out but in some batteries like car they can be topped off for longer life usage, but if its fully dryed out possibly its going to have very low charge because it has been so dry so x ammound of time. Good question.
Is lime and vinegar the same?
No. Lime is a base, alkali, primarily calcium oxide or calcium hydroxide. Vinegar is an acid (acetic acid)
What is the voltage of a 12 V battery?
It depends on the state of charge. A fully charged lead-acid 12V battery will measure around 13.6V, the same battery at the end of useful charge will be approximately 10.5V
Can lead acid battery work as alkaline battery?
Perhaps it would be possible to replace an alkaline battery with a lead acid battery of the same voltage and current capacity. BUT the construction, size, and chemistry of the two types are totally different.
Can you replace battery acid with vinegar?
No, it is not safe to replace battery acid with vinegar. Battery acid and vinegar have different chemical properties and vinegar will not be able to provide the same function as battery acid in a battery. It is important to use the specified type of acid recommended by the manufacturer for the battery to function properly and safely.
Is regular battery acid the same for golf cart batteries?
If you mean regular battery acid like the batteries in automobiles, then yes, it is. Oh, and some of us use the term electrolyte instead of battery acid. It's a mixture of water and sulfuric acid.
What is measured by Specific gravity of a lead acid cell?
Specific gravity of the electrolyte in the lead acid cell or battery (assuming that the battery is not of the sealed type) is often used as a measure of its STATE OF CHARGE. Sure we can do the same with a multimeter but the above method is more accurate.
Can a car battery charger be used on a motorcycle?
Yes and no. If you use a jumping unit, most have a setting that should match your cycle's battery voltage and limit current. You can jump one cycle's battery with another cycle's battery provided they are the same voltage and a rechargable-friendly (for example lead-acid) chemistry.
What are the effects of undercharging the battery?
Undercharging a battery can cause premature failure of the battery, the same as overcharging will do. This is caused by the lead plates within the battery cells becoming solfated.
