Hello there, im just new here btw so i don't know if this is the best place to post my question.
I've lately built a music box to play music in the open air, and added some 12v LEDs to it. Now my problem is: If i've just charged up my (lead) battery (12v, from a scooter) everything works fine. Music and LEDs simultaneously. But after about half an hour, the lights won't go on again. The music just keeps on playing fine. When I turn off the music for about 5 mins and turn it on again, the music won't play. Instead, the volume drops by about 90% and cracks like hell. If I dont turn the music off it'd keep playing for at least 5 hours. And when I charge the battery for just even 5 minutes after I've turned it off, it will keep playing for 5 hours again (of course not if it's empty.)
So it seems I have to "kickstart" this lead battery =S That's very inconvenient if you're out in the open air where there is no possibility of "kickstarting" the battery. Does anyone know a solution for this? plz? (Amplifier is also just 12v (160w max))
