Best Answer

Use an "Inverter". They make a lot of inverters for 12v but few for 6v. You could use 2 6v batteries hooked in series though. Just make sure the inverter is big enough to power what you wish. A 300 watt one will power a electric razor, or small electronics fine. A 1000 watt would power a computer or a laptop also, etc.

What is the input energy of an electric drill?

Some use AC electric power from a wall outlet. Some use DC electric power from a rechargeable battery (but this was originally charged using AC electric power from a wall outlet).


How does solar power work?

Solar Power works when the sunlight carries energy down to earth. This energy is called photons. When the photons strike the semiconductor in the solar panels, electrons from the material itself get knocked out to form an electric current. This is electricity that people can use every day! Electric meter literally runs backwards when you are producing net energy and forward!! 1.Convert Sunlight Into DC Electricity: Solar panels are mounted on your roof and convert sunlight into DC electricity that flows to an inverter. 2.Inverter Creates AC Electricity: Inverters convert the direct current (DC) power into alternating (AC) power that your home can use. 3.Spin Your Meter Backwards: You'll still have utility power when you need it. Any excess electricity will be delivered to the grid for a credit.


Why alternating current cannot be stored in battery?

b'coz ac changes continiously with time


What type of current is used in homes?

Both ac and dc current are used in our homes. But only low frequency (50 or 60 Hz) ac current is furnished by the power company. Electrical devices in our homes that require dc current usually have built in ac to dc rectifiers. we get electricity into home from main power supply as AC current.according to our electrinic devices select what type of current is suitable for it.for example,Ac power supply used to Tetevision,computers etc.Inside the devices,AC current convert into DC current.

From what power do inverter welders convert into AC power?

Power inverters convert AC power form the mains into DC power. This is then the same as though the power has been obtained from a battery. They are often used in trucks and buses for powering equipment.


How do you convert ac generator to dc generator?

Such conversions are often inefficient and/or expensive. It requires an external power supply or battery charger to convert AC into DC.


What is a DC AC inverter used for?

A DC/AC power inverter is used to convert DC, the power that comes from a car's battery, into AC, the kind of power that is supplied to a home and used to power larger electronics.


What is the use of ic 7806?
