    Simplest 2nd car battery charging solutions for rental car, so gizmos can be charged at night.

    What is the simplest, portable, lightest, smallest (even if not the safest or efficient) solution to charge a 2nd car battery (located in the trunk or passenger cabin) while driving a rental car (sedan or SUV)? For example, can I just use a 3 m jump cable between the two batteries all day/while...

    What frequency value to use to find the correct time constant for a 22kΩ resistor?

    Hey guys, I have just been introduced to time constants and I'm having some trouble with this question. What frequency value do you plan to use to obtain the correct time constant for a 22 kΩ resistor? (Hint: It takes five time constants for a capacitor to go through the full charging...
  3. A dual axis solar tracker or mppt charge controller?

    OK, it has been few months now since i installed my solar system. It is a small one but i want to extract every ounce of juice i could get from my solar pv's. I am already aware that the mppt charge controller can do it's wonders. Currently using a pwm one and the only i time i get full...
  4. Solar charge controller ?

    Hello I have got one last confusion about charge controllers doesn't matter whether it is pwm or mppt. Thing is i have seen many CC with variety of output amps on 12v and 24v with different manufacturers... But they are all different.. Which number in a charge controller defines that how many...
  5. Why there is an internal resistance in the batteries?

    Hello My question might seem very obvious but i never really understood why... Too much power is being wasted during charging because of this internal resistance, there must be a logical explanation for this and i need that to know. I am not looking for technical answer instead if you could...
