The theory is electrons would exit the battery cathode and enter the first foil layer. The dielectric would prevent any actual passage of electrons but would repel the ones in the other foil. At that point the charge should peak. Even so, bear in mind up to 300 amps can flow. You can also get 230 VAC from a 120 amp hour battery.
In the very old days they used to use an grid bias battery like this and put a capacitor and neon lamp in circuit. The flickers could be used to measure capacity.
However, this is straying off topic.
