Anonymous Coward User ID: 72957851 United States 09/10/2016 01:08 PM Report Abusive Post Report Copyright Violation | Back in the early days of battery-powered vacuum tube devices (mainly radios) there were, in fact, A and B batteries. Both batteries had voltage ratings that were higher than today's standard 1.5 volts. The voltage of A batteries was in the range of, say, 5-6 volts and B batteries had a much greater voltage rating, say 90 volts or so. The A batteries supplied a bias to the grid of those "valves" mentioned previously (in the US we call them vacuum tubes) and B batteries supplied bias to the plate of the vacuum tube. |

Quoting: powerofsoul So the ( B ) Is Automatically Included By Default. Great Question! No that is not why its because A and B batteries were totally different than modern batteries they were like valves. Isn't the internet a series of valves?

JohnCasey User ID: 69674560 Canada 09/10/2016 01:34 PM Report Abusive Post Report Copyright Violation | There are "B" batteries. They're just used in old tube portables from the 30's and 40's before transistors which worked with lower voltages. I believe they were 90 volts.
