A Lead Acid Battery is a type of rechargeable battery that uses lead dioxide and sponge lead as electrodes, with sulfuric acid as the electrolyte. It is commonly used in vehicles, uninterruptible power supplies, and various industrial applications due to its ability to deliver high surge currents. These batteries are known for their reliability and cost-effectiveness, but they are heavier and have a shorter lifespan compared to newer battery technologies like Lithium-ion Batteries. Despite this, their ability to provide a steady voltage makes them a popular choice for many applications.
