Odysseys are nice. They are just about the only ones who make a thin plate cranking battery that is also rated for deep cycle use.

Note in the specs on the PC1500 that it can handle 400 cycles...

And I forgot to answer your question. :D

The answer is: All parameters.

Age, type, size, capacity, manufacturer, factory batch/manufacture date, etc. All.

If you are going to hook up...

If the battery lists CA, CCA and RC, then it's pretty much guaranteed to be a cranking battery. A deep cycle battery will list Amp*Hours (AH) instead. Cranking batteries have lots of thin lead plates...

The purpose of an isolator is usually to allow you to put your loads on the secondary battery and drain it without having to worry about draining the primary battery - so you can still start the...

A diode-type isolator doesn't change that.

Okay, yea it prevents one battery from pulling down the other, but it doesn't change how the voltage regulator behaves. The voltage regulator only sees...

They told you wrong.

The alternator is supplying current to the exact same place that the secondary would be pulling power from - the positive terminal on the primary battery. So the current will...

Looks like they hit the nail on the head with the...well...the head. Two piece telescoping hard walls. Bingo!

They did. Avi Meyers was repping them but now the URL for unicatamericas.com redirects back to the main Unicat site.

How much current any given wire can carry depends on A) the wire type (copper, aluminum, tinned, bare, stranded, etc.), B) the insulation's temperature rating, and C) how you use it.

For instance,...

When you turn the key on, the ignition circuit energizes the solenoid, which ties the batteries. If the house battery has enough juice, and the solenoid has a high enough amp rating, and the battery...

Having done IT professionally for a dozen years, my honest opinion is that it's all junk. Macs, PCs, whatever hardware running Linux (which I've used since it came out in 1993)...

All complete...

One of my former padawans (IT apprentice) now works for one of the major drive array companies. One of his jobs is provisioning gear for the end users. He was telling me one day about how all the new...

400w / 12v = 33.3a

Dunno what its surge rating is, but if you don't go over 400w on it, #8 would be fine.


With a 20a fuse, then you would be limited to:

20a x 12v = 240w

So, if you draw...

The broken mount says "LORD" on it, so it's probably made by these guys:

I doubt...

That is a clean bus conversion. But...no head.

Looking around that site, I notice that folks in Oz do the same thing they do here in the U.S. - label something as "vintage" just because it's old....

Dunno what that plastic is, but it's probably not heat rated. Most wire insulation is rated 60C, 75C and 90C, so if it can handle that, it should be fine. If you are overheating the wire beyond its...

That's a misconception.

All lead-acid battery lifespans are rated in cycles. The lower you drain them, the less cycles you get. You might get 3000 cycles if you only drain them 50%, and might only...

From the manual in the OP's link, that BM is a 2-stage: bulk to 14.2v then drop to float at 13.4v. It'll get the job done, but a 3-stage that does an absorb stage would be better.

Can't go wrong...

The manual is a bit skimpy.

My first thought is that maybe it's the reverse polarity protection fuse. That may be in the negative line.



Check from battery neg to appliance hot to see if...

Now that you mention batteries in parallel, I looked again and see that both the pos and neg for the inverter are wired to one of the batteries. If it was a matched set of batteries in parallel, the...

Clean. But man...those battery terminals are close to that metal. Made me cringe when I saw it.

It's the latest evolution of a very old idea.

When Java first came out, there was a lot of talk about how it would enable software companies to charge by the module. I.e., you pay for the...
