Battery cells provide their own power. So if you add several battery cells together end to end, the voltage will increase. It''s important to keep in mind that when wiring batteries in series, the amp hours are not added in the same way that voltage is. Overall power is increased because watts is voltage multiplied by amp hours.

Make a Lemon Battery. Gently squeeze the lemon or roll it on a table to soften it. This helps the juice flow within the fruit. Insert the copper and zinc into the fruit. You want the maximum surface area in the juicy part of the fruit. The lemon peel helps support the metal, but if it is very thick and the metal does not reach the juice, scrape away part of the peel. Ideally, …
Most batteries will have six caps, one for each cell. Some newer, maintenance-free batteries may not have filler caps, but instead have a built-in indicator that shows the battery''s charge level. To check the water levels, remove the filler caps and look inside each cell. The water level should be above the lead plates, but below the bottom of the filler …
