Wrong, wrong, wrong, wrong, wrong, wrong and incorrect!
How can some people's minds be so ineffective at thinking?

I know it is pointless to argue with you but:

Perhaps you ******s would understand it better using flashlight D cells
as an example. Take one D cell that is half charged (Ni-Cad) and put it
into
a two-cell flashlight in the company of another NI-Cad) D cell that is
fully
charged and turn on the switch. The bulb will light and current will
pass through the circuit. As well as working to light the bulb, the
fully-charged cell will discharge into the half charge cell until
the voltage in both cells equalizes.

Perhaps you could try to envision in which direction current flows through
the empty cell in this example and next, try to envision in which direction
current flows when *charging* a cell. Or even better: try this example for
yourself.

I hope this helps.

Certainly not.

So even an engineer might understand. . .

http://hyperphysics.phy-astr.gsu.edu.../leadacid.html

Engineers look at a battery as a physical object while an electrician looks
at it as a container for a chemical reactions that store and release electricity.

Higher voltage than a fully charge battery can supply, when applied to the
battery terminals drives the chemical reaction and changes it from releasing
electrons to storing electrons but does not reverse the current as most dumb
engineers claim.

Read the above link carefully and click on all the links and perhaps you
will understand the error of your thinking.

You're welcomd.
