Interesting curves, bookmarked. Thank you! For the 1V voltage drop of the diodes and the resulting 13.3v on the batteries, it seems that my...
PS: Calculating the internal resistance by using cranking amps, smart! The result seems surprisingly low
Thank you Joakim for a very thorough answer. I gathered here and by searching some more online that battery models are complex and that internal...
Everywhere on this cable it's the same indeed. But the question is: can it be calculated from the state of both batteries, with a formula? I was...
That's crystal clear. I'm not sure what made you think it isn't. Maybe I said something unclear or ambiguous?
Again I forgot to answer, sorry for late reply. My starter battery is charged by the alternator, my leisure battery is charged by a solar panel,...
Oops, I hand't noticed the answers here. I just wanted to understand the voltage drop between my starter and leisure battery. My mistake was to...
I was just thinking: whether the internal resistance is represented before or after the generator, doesn't make any difference in terms of current...
Hi, I'm curious about voltage drop between batteries. How do you calculate the current between two batteries? Say, there's a solar panel...
Current rating is for avoiding overheating. What about voltage rating? Is it related to voltage drop?
Yes, that makes sense thank you! R I^2 means that the power will be solely dependent on the current, which will probably be mostly determined by...
Hi, I'm thinking of using this Screw terminal block barrier double row on my boat. Its specifications say: 600V and 15A. Can I instead use...
Thank you! Uninsulated connectors, it's obvious now :)
Very good trick, thank you gonzo :-) I was wondering about the robustness of such connections. Do you do the same with all connections to terminal...
Hi, I'm working on my boat's 12v electrics. I bought this Bus bar recently for £11.50, and then came accross this Earth block for £1.50, which...
