Technical FAQs 4

Can a battery connect a negative terminal to a positive terminal?

No, connecting the negative terminal of one battery to the positive terminal of another battery in series is incorrect and can damage the batteries. When connecting batteries in series, you should always connect the negative terminal of one battery to the positive terminal of another battery.

How do you connect a battery negative to a positive?

To connect the battery negative to positive, start by removing any protective caps or covers from the terminals. Make sure to keep the positive and negative terminals separate throughout the process. Then, take the positive cable, usually red, and connect it to the positive terminal of the battery.

What is a positive and negative battery?

A positive pole or anode and a negative pole which is called the cathode always exist in every battery. These two poles work together to generate an electric current that powers various electronic devices and power systems.

What is a positive & negative terminal on a lithium ion battery?

On most batteries with wire connectors (such as LiPo, Li-ion, or even NiMH batteries), the positive and negative terminals are connected to wires, typically color-coded red (for positive) and black (for negative), that attach to a connector like JST PH2.
