This battery type, though later improved upon by others, became the foundation for the car batteries we use today.
Here's a breakdown:
* Gaston Planté: Developed the first practical lead-acid battery, paving the way for the development of car batteries.
* Camille Faure: Improved Planté's design by introducing lead oxide plates, making the batteries more efficient and powerful.
* Henry Ford: Mass-produced cars with lead-acid batteries, making them a standard feature of automobiles.
So, while Planté's invention was crucial, many individuals contributed to the development and refinement of car batteries over time.
