In series
you add the voltage and the amp hours remain the same. In parallel you add the amp
hours and the voltage remains constant. -----Original

looking for cheap replacement batteries for my kids power wheels jeep, I came
across 12 volt sealed ups batteries rated at 9 ampere hour for $5.00
each. The jeep takes 2 6 volt sealed batteries in series rated at
9.5 ampere hour each. Is the
2 6 volt batteries (9.5 ampere hour) in series = 12 volts at 19 ampere hour or
12 volts at 9.5 ampere hour? And is
2 12 volt batteries (9 ampere hour) in parallel = 12 volts at 18 ampere
hour or 12 volts at 9 ampere hour? Just
trying to get the Barbie rat jeep rolling at the cheapest possible cost and the
longest possible distance.... Thanks
for the info. |
