Why do batteries die over time even when not connected to anything?

the reason for that is because if a battery is not connected to a wall it will not get additional energy for its high potential electrons.

Can Nicd rechargeable batteries be replaced with Nimh rechargeable batteries for solar lights?
The two types of rechargeable batteries are similar in performance and many characteristics are the same. Importantly, they both deliver a voltage of 1.2V so the devices they drive will respond in the same way. The two technologies differ in the way that they should be charged. This is only a concern for fast chargers. Nimh batteries can be fully charged in about one hour but it is is important that the charger monitors the battery and shuts off the charge at the right time to avoid damage to the battery. NiCd batteries have a different charging characteristic so charging either battery in a fast charger designed for the other type is likely to lead to damage or reduced performance. Solar lights use solar panels to charge batteries over a 12 hour period or more. The charging current is low enough to avoid the risks of damage to a Nimh battery so it is very likely that they can be used. There should be no risk of damage but the only way to see if the batteries work in a light fitting is to try it and see if it works. If it doesn't, it's time to switch back to NiCd batteries.

Is it safe to interconnect 2 - 12 volt batteries together to keep them at 12 volts?
Yes, this is known as a parallel connection. When wired in this configuration you will get double the amp/hours out of the batteries over just using one battery. Batteries connected in series results in the voltages being additive. Batteries in parallel results in longer amp/hour capacity.
How do batteries have energy?
Batteries have energy because they use chemical reactions to store it within cells. The energy will slowly escape over time even when not used.
How many AA batteries are needed to replace a car battery?
An AA battery is a 1.5 volt battery so if you connected 8 together in series you would have the 12 volts, but you would have no where near the amount of amps necessary to turn the engine over. You could connect several packs of 9 AA batteries connected in series together in parallel and eventually get enough to start the engine. I would estimate you would need 20 packs for a total of 180 batteries.
How many amps do 8 6 volt dc batteries put out?
The amperage drawn from batteries is governed by the connected load. The voltage of the batteries can be one of two voltages. in parallel the 8 batteries will give you a voltage of 6 volts. In series the 8 batteries will give you a voltage of 48 volts. The amp/hour capacity of the batteries will give you the amount of current the device can draw over a specific length of time. Equation to fine amperage is I = W/E, Amps = Watts/Volts. Watts = Amps x Volts.
Does a Lithium-ion battery retain its charge even if not used?
All batteries have an internal resistance and will discharge itself over a period of time.
Do you use batteries for the PokeWalker or can you charge it?
The batteries are over the counter watch batteries and they last twice as long as the battery put into the walker
What are all the brands of batteries?
There are over 14 companies that manufacture batteries in the U.S. These companies make batteries under hundreds of different names.

Why do hoverboard expode?
The batteries get over heated.
If voltage is not used up in a circuit then why does a battery go flat?
All rechargable batteries have an internal resistance, which will discharge them over time even when they're not hooked up to anything. A good lead-acid battery will lose around 20% of their charge in 60-90 days depending on temperature.
Why is it dangerous to exprriment with mains electricity or large batteries?
Touching bare, live, contacts, connected to mains electricity will give you a nasty shock which could be fatal. Your house circuits have protection using circuit breakers, fuses and RCDs.Large batteries have the capacity to deliver very large currents if shorted out, which can cause fires and may explode, showering acid and/or chemicals all over the place.
