What is the current of a car battery?
1 Answers
Car batteries typically have a current ranging between 10A to 20A. Here are specific details about car batteries: Working Principle: During charging, electrical energy is converted into chemical energy, and during discharging, chemical energy is converted back into electrical energy. When discharging, the metal lead acts as the negative electrode, undergoing oxidation to form lead sulfate; lead dioxide serves as the positive electrode, undergoing reduction to also form lead sulfate. Battery Maintenance: Avoid leaving the car parked in open parking lots for extended periods. If long-term parking is necessary, remove and take the battery to prevent freezing damage. Car batteries require regular charging as they gradually self-discharge when unused, leading to eventual failure. Therefore, start the car periodically to recharge the battery.
