The Nernst equation can be used to calculate the cell voltage as a function of the electrolyte concentration.
Customer ServiceFrom All About Batteries, Part 3: Lead-Acid Batteries. It''s a typical 12 volt lead-acid battery discharge characteristic and it shows the initial drop from about 13 volts to around 12 volts occuring in the first minute of a load being applied. Thereafter, the discharge rate doesn''t unduly affect the output voltage level until the battery gets

Customer ServiceUsing lead-acid for energy storage for solar power is a great and cost-effective way of storing solar energy. In this article, I will show you the different States of charge of 12-volt, 24-volt, and 48-volt batteries. We have two types of deep cycle Lead Acid batteries. These are: Flooded lead acid batteries; Sealed lead acid batteries
Customer ServiceIn many battery types, including lead acid batteries, the battery cannot be discharged below a certain level or permanent damage may be done to the battery. This voltage is called the "cut-off voltage" and depends on the type of battery, its temperature and the battery''s rate of discharge.
Customer ServiceApproximate voltage efficiency: (2V)/(2.3V) = 87% Charging at constant voltage. Self-discharge is the electrical capacity that is lost when the cell simply sits on the shelf. Self-discharge is caused by electrochemical processes within the cell and is
Customer ServiceHigh temperatures reduce voltage and performance in lead-acid batteries. They have a negative temperature coefficient, which means their terminal voltage drops as temperature increases, assuming the charging current stays constant. This effect can shorten battery life and efficiency.
Customer ServiceThis discharges the battery, and both positive and negative plates progressively change into lead sulfate, and the electrolyte, losing the sulfuric component, progressively changes to water. The nice thing about a secondary (rechargeable) lead-acid battery cell is that the discharge cycle is completely reversible.

Customer ServiceHence lower concentration at electrode surface; Nernst equation then predicts lower voltage. 3. "Golf cart" or "forklift" batteries. If we discharge the battery more slowly, say at a current of C/10, then we might expect that the battery would run longer (10 hours) before becoming discharged.
Customer ServiceIn between the fully discharged and charged states, a lead acid battery will experience a gradual reduction in the voltage. Voltage level is commonly used to indicate a battery''s state of charge. The dependence of the battery on the battery state of charge is shown in the figure below.
Customer ServiceSee my stack exchange answer to "Lead Acid Battery Charger Design Factors" which relates, and follow the link there to the Battery University site which will tell you far more than you knew there was to know about lead acid (and other) batteries.. From the above answer note the quotes from the above website. Especially in this context. The correct setting of the charge voltage is

Voltage level is commonly used to indicate a battery''s state of charge. The dependence of the battery on the battery state of charge is shown in the figure below.
Customer ServiceOne not-so-nice feature of lead acid batteries is that they discharge all by themselves even if not used. A general rule of thumb is a one percent per day rate of self-discharge. This rate increases at high temperatures and decreases at cold temperatures. Don''t forget that your Gold Wing, with a clock, stereo, and CB radio, is never completely turned off.
Customer ServiceThe recommended charging voltage for a lead acid battery is around 2.3 to 2.4 volts per cell, or about 13.8 to 14.4 volts for a 12-volt battery. It''s important to avoid overcharging the battery as it can lead to electrolyte loss and damage to the battery. Can I use a regular car battery charger to charge a lead acid battery? Yes, you can use a regular car battery charger
Customer ServiceAnother important indicator is the battery''s voltage. A fully charged lead-acid battery should have a voltage of around 12.8 volts. If the voltage drops below 12.4 volts, the battery needs to be recharged. Internal resistance is also an important factor to consider. A battery with high internal resistance will have difficulty delivering power
Customer ServiceThis behavior is due to the electrochemical reactions within the battery, which are sensitive to temperature changes. According to the Battery University, a division of the Cadex Electronics, lead acid batteries exhibit a voltage range of about 2 volts per cell at 25°C. This standard voltage decreases at lower temperatures due to reduced reaction rates and

Customer ServiceLead Acid. The nominal voltage of lead acid is 2 volts per cell, however when measuring the open circuit voltage, the OCV of a charged and rested battery should be 2.1V/cell. Keeping lead acid much below 2.1V/cell will cause the buildup of sulfation. While on float charge, lead acid measures about 2.25V/cell, higher during normal charge. Nickel

Customer ServiceA lower voltage reading on the Lead Acid Battery Voltage Chart generally suggests a lower state of charge in the battery. It indicates that the battery has less available energy and may require charging to maintain its optimal performance. Can the Lead Acid Battery Voltage Chart be used for all lead acid batteries?
A Lead Acid Battery Voltage Chart is a graphical representation that shows the relationship between the voltage and the state of charge of a lead acid battery. It helps in determining the battery’s capacity and estimating its remaining charge. How can I use the Lead Acid Battery Voltage Chart?
The battery should not, therefore, be discharged below this voltage. In between the fully discharged and charged states, a lead acid battery will experience a gradual reduction in the voltage. Voltage level is commonly used to indicate a battery's state of charge.
5.2.1 Voltage of lead acid battery upon charging. The charging reaction converts the lead sulfate at the negative electrode to lead. At the positive terminal the reaction converts the lead to lead oxide. As a by-product of this reaction, hydrogen is evolved.
The load conditions applied to a lead-acid battery can also impact its voltage. When a load is connected to the battery, the voltage tends to drop due to internal resistance and the energy being drawn from the battery. Similarly, removing a load can cause the voltage to rise.
The battery may also fail as an open circuit (that is, there may be a gradual increase in the internal series resistance), and any batteries connected in series with this battery will also be affected. Freezing the battery, depending on the type of lead acid battery used, may also cause irreversible failure of the battery.
