-- If all 8 batteries have the same rated voltage as the inverter input,

then they must be configured in parallel.

-- If the batteries are not rated the same voltage as the inverter input,

then some combination of series and parallel has to be designed. The

specific configuration depends on the details of the batteries you have.

Can two 8 volt batteries make 16 volts?

Yes, if you connect the two batteries in series. You will then have 16 volts, but the current will stay the same as if you only had one battery connected.


How many 100amp hour batteries do you need to connect to a 96VDC inverter to produce the same output as a 5kva generator for a period of 8 hours?

We can only do this in a sketchy way, because some important numbers are missing.-- You didn't mention the voltage of the 100-AH batteries.-- We don't know whether the inverter can deliver 5,000 watts, like the generator can.-- We also don't know the efficiency of the inverter.So we'll go at it in terms of the total energy, we'll assume that the inverter can dowhatever we want it to do, and at the end, we can toss in a term for its efficiency.-- At the back end, you specified 5 KVA for 8 hours. If the generator is 100% loaded,with a power factor of 100%, then that's (5 x 8) = 40 KWH of energy in 8 hours.-- If the inverter is 100% efficient, then 40 KWH is what the batteries need to supply, in 8 hours.-- I'm going to assume that your batteries are the nominal-12-VDC "car battery" type.So you need 8 of them in series to power the 96-VDC inverter.-- The batteries keel over and die after delivering 100 Amp-Hours. At 96 volts,that's 9,600 watt-hours of energy.-- Throughout the 8 hours, you need 40,000 watt-hours. One string of batteriesdelivers 9,600. That's 24% of the total energy required. Instead of 24%, I want towrite it as 6/25 of the total energy. You'll see why in the next line . . .-- Since the one 96-volt string of 8 batteries produced 6/25 of the required total energy,you need 25/6 = 4.1666 strings, in parallel.You have to supply the batteries in sets of 96 volts, in order to run the inverter.So far, the answer is 41/6 96-volt strings.We assumed that a 100-AH battery could actually deliver 100-AH, and the voltagewould never sag. Realistically, you shouldn't count on more than maybe 90% of that.Call that number the "battery margin".We assumed that the inverter is 100% efficient ... all of the energy that comesout of the batteries shows up at the inverter's output. That never happens. There'salways some energy lost in the inverter. I'm going to call the efficiency of theinverter ' E '. It's a percent, it's less than 100, and I'll leave it up to you to find out.So, here's the best I can do: You asked for the number of batteries.-- Number of batteries in each series string = 96/battery voltage .For 12-V car batteries, it's 8 batteries in each string.Each battery assumed to be rated 100-AH.-- Number of strings:(41,666) divided by [ (battery margin percent) times ( ' E ' percent) ]========================Example:Battery margin = 90%Inverter efficiency = 80%Number of strings = (41,666)/[90 x 80] = 41,666/7,200 = 5.79 . . . Use 6 strings.RED FLAG . . .This whole discussion assumes that the inverter is rated for 5,000 watts output or more. If it's not, then this has been an interesting exercise, but please forget the whole idea.Your inverter CANNOT match the output of a 5 KVA generator for more than about 10 seconds.After that, it'll be the clickety-clack of tripped breakers, echoing through the smoke.

How do you make an eight input AND gate out of transistors?

One way to make an eight input AND gate out of transistors... Start with one transistor, NPN. Ground the emitter. Connect the collector to Vcc with a resistor. Connect the base to Vcc through two resistors, picked to drive the transistor into saturation. The input of that stage is the junction of the two resistors. If you ground that input, the transistor cuts off, and the collector goes high. Unground the input, and the collector goes low. OK. Now you have an inverter. Build eight of them, but only use one collector resistor, and tie all of the collectors together. If any one input is high, the output is low. If all inputs are low, the output is high. OK. Now you have an 8 input negative logic NAND gate. Follow it up with another inverter stage, reversing the output. OK. Now you still have an 8 input NAND gate, with the output high true. If you want the inputs to be high true also, connect each one to an inverter. This will use 17 transistors, and you will have an 8 input positive logic AND gate.


How long could the fully charged set of batteries run the refrigerator in the absence of any sunlight?

Batteries and Inverter Typically, a battery is rated assuming a 20-hour cycle. For example, a 160 amp-hour battery would theoretically provide 8 amps per hour for 20 hours. Most solar batteries will provide sufficient current for both a refrigerator and other appliances.

What is the total cost of 8 batteries at 32.65 each?

each battery cost 32.65 then 8 batteries costs = 32.65 * 8 = 261.2 total


How many amps do 8 6 volt dc batteries put out?

The amperage drawn from batteries is governed by the connected load. The voltage of the batteries can be one of two voltages. in parallel the 8 batteries will give you a voltage of 6 volts. In series the 8 batteries will give you a voltage of 48 volts. The amp/hour capacity of the batteries will give you the amount of current the device can draw over a specific length of time. Equation to fine amperage is I = W/E, Amps = Watts/Volts. Watts = Amps x Volts.


Can 4 8 volt batteries replace 6 6 volt batteries?

yes


Will a 12 volt dc power requirement work on a AA battery?

No, not on 1 AA battery which only outputs 1.5 volts. Connect 8 AA batteries together in Series and you will have 12 volts.


How many amp hours will 8 AA 2500mah batteries produce?

It depends how they are connected. If they are wired in series, there will be only one current path through all 8 batteries, so you'll get the same 2500 mA-h which is 2.5 A-h. If the batteries are wired in parallel, there will be 8 sources of current so you'll get 8 x 2.5 = 20 A-h. However, it's usually cheaper and more efficient to use bigger batteries instead of putting small ones in parallel.
