I was trying to figure out how many volts or the amount of current I would need if I was to make a battery charger. Depending on the type of battery would I need to make sure the voltage or current is correct, and would the volts need to be above or below the voltage [...]

Okay, the situation is we’re gonna go charge a battery at different voltage and of course at different currents. Now I want to know if there’s a relation or some sort of a formula, I just want to confirm the results, thanks.

I have a 1988 3/4 ton dodge van it has a 5.2L V8. I just had my alternator rebuilt. I have a fairly new optima battery, and my battery/alternator tester says that it is good. but I’m not receving the power from the alternator. If someone could let me know where my vlotage regulator is [...]

ok so i have a dead battery i want to charge. it goes to an electric 4 wheeler for my son. Just got it today and the battery is dead. So i connect the charger and wait. The battery doesn’t charge although it looks brand new. So I get my voltage tester and check the [...]

This is a weird question but… I was getting a jump on my car today and we accidentally messed up the jumper cables and the electricity was just flying. Out of morbid curiosity, if you were stupid enough to grab both ends of the cable, is the charge of a car battery enough to fatally [...]

Hyundai Elantra – 2001

Im trying to make a battery tester for a small project. The battery is a rechargeable 12v battery. its a LM339 Comparator. If its possible for the comparator to have a led light come on at 3v, 6v, 9v, and 12v, or anything in between. If this is possible are there any other parts i [...]

The battery is a NH12-AAA 1.2V (850 mAh) rechargeable Energizer battery. They currently have 1.3V in them. At what voltage will my calculator stop functioning when I use these batteries?

I’d like to test for power getting from point a to point b in my car (ie, getting to the wiper motor). I have a tester that came with a toolkit I bought. It looks like a screwdriver with a little bulb inside. How do I check for voltage using this? Do I test with [...]

If I can I would rather run my own diagnostics on my ignition and starter system without paying a mech ten times the price of the device you catch my drift?
