Cell E1 is in series with E2, E3 is in series with E4, E5 in series with E6, and E7 with E8. Cells E1
and E2 are in parallel with E3, and E4, E3 and E4, are in parallel with E5 and E6, and E5 and E6 in
parallel with E7 and E8,. The terminal voltage of the combination of E1, plus E2 is 3 volts, as is
the combination of E3 plus E4, E5 plus E6, and E7 plus E8. The terminal voltage of the battery of
cells is 3 volts. The current capacity of the combination of E1, and E2 is 1 ampere-hour, as is
the combination of E3 and E4, E5, and E6, E7 and E8. The current capacity of the battery is 4
ampere-hours.
If you connected two ( 2) batteries of cells, each consisting of six (6) series-connected 2
volt- -- 100 ampere-hour cells, in parallel, the terminal voltage of the combination would be 12
volts and the current capacity would be 200 ampere-hours.
