I just gave an excellent (unbiased*) option above You can charge your 24 volt battery from the 12 volt alternator or any single output 12 volt...
You are referring to DC-DC converters that can convert 12 volts to 24. And you are correct, the higher the frequency the smaller the transformer....
We are just now in testing of our Trollbridge Combiner that allows you to charge a 24 volt battery from a 12 volt alternator using either the...
Thanks PAR However the point is good information to all. I'm aware of the construction of tinned wire but the poster was contemplating tinning...
Keep in mind that Many compression connections on connectors that have been designed for marine stranded wire rely on the wire compressing to...
There is a DIY design on our website that costs a fraction of that one and can be expanded to any number of bilge pumps. See the article at...
Huh? Who said electrons loose energy by traveling? The word appears no where in the post. The longer the distance the higher the resistance....
You are correct - the ground wire is typically a smaller gauge than the current carrying conductors however the neutral and ground are not sharing...
The reason you can use one 50 amp isolator for a dual 30 amp supply is based on the probability that you would (hardly) never get two simultaneous...
Picking off 12 volts from the center of the 24 volt bank to charge and maintain your 12 volt system is unwise, although not uncommon. When two...
Actually I think we are using different descriptions to describe the same device. The term "Ground fault isolator" is somewhat misleading since...
No, a GFCI or GFI works the same way as you described the RCD. It has a triple coiled transformer with the hot in one primary coil and the...
Jim is full of critical rhetoric but no facts. Criticism is easy but vacuous if unsupported. The article doesn't pretend to be authoritative the...
