What does increased battery discharge when the car is parked mean?
1 Answers
Increased battery discharge when the car is parked means the battery is over-discharging. When the ignition switch is turned on, the dashboard will display a warning indicating battery over-discharge. This is closely related to the car battery. Below are detailed explanations about car batteries: Overview: A car battery, also known as a storage battery, is a type of battery that works by converting chemical energy into electrical energy. The battery typically refers to a lead-acid battery, which is mainly made of lead and its oxides, with sulfuric acid solution as the electrolyte. Others: The plates of a conventional battery are composed of lead and lead oxides, and the electrolyte is an aqueous solution of sulfuric acid. Its main advantages are stable voltage and low cost; the disadvantages are low specific energy (i.e., the amount of electrical energy stored per kilogram of battery), short service life, and frequent daily maintenance.
