Cell #1: 4.03 v, voltage on neutral plate ~2v
Cell #2: 3.78 v; voltage on neutral plate ~2.10v
Cell #3: 4.40 v; voltage on neutral plate ~ 2.15v
Total amp < 3.5; kept running for 1 hr.
Question: How come 12.xx voltage from car battery is not equally divided; may it is based on slight difference between gap for each plate, surface across three cells.
Its because the cells have resistance, so as it builds in a series circuit, then the voltage will decrease.
