Although tribasic lead sulphate (3BS) has been chemically prepared and found in the cured negative plates of lead-acid batteries (LABs), little was known about its behaviour if it is used directly as their negative active material (NAM).

The negative plates in a lead acid battery are made using a composition that includes a polymer mixed with lead oxide, water, an expander, and sulfuric acid. This forms a negative paste composition with the expander and basic lead sulfate crystals having the polymer absorbed on their surfaces. The passage describes a process for reducing active material shrinkage in these batteries.
To manufacture a lead acid battery, first, apply the negative paste composition to a grid and dry and cure the paste to form a negative battery plate. Then, assemble a positive battery plate and the negative battery plate to form a green battery. Lastly, convert the tribasic lead sulfate to sponge lead by electrochemical reduction in step 24.

Lead–acid batteries were used to supply the filament (heater) voltage, with 2 V common in early vacuum tube (valve) radio receivers. Portable batteries for miners' cap headlamps typically have two or three cells. Lead–acid batteries designed for starting automotive engines are not designed for deep discharge.
This comes to 167 watt-hours per kilogram of reactants, but in practice, a lead–acid cell gives only 30–40 watt-hours per kilogram of battery, due to the mass of the water and other constituent parts.
