Would an 8 volt battery charge on a 12 volt charger?
No chargers usually produce about 1.5 volts above the battery to be charged. By connecting a 12 volt charger to an eight volt battery it will boil the electrolyte in the battery.
Are there carbon monoxide fumes from a battery charger?
Due to the chemical compositions of batteries (most batteries contain a form of acid which reacts to create electricity) neither the battery charger nor the battery is likely to produce CO (Carbon Monoxide)
How long should a 7.2v 1800mah radio control car battery take to charge if the charger outputs 16.5v?
It depends on how many mah your charger can produce
Can you use an 18 volt charger to charge a 14.4 volt battery?
Yes, a standard battery charger produces 13.8 volts when it is charging a battery. If you are thinking of using a charger that you plug into the wall that is used for electronic equipment, don't. The battery usually wants more amperage that they can produce and the device usually will burn out.
How do you find out how long it takes to charge a 9.6 1100 mAh battery?
Need to know what the maximum output in amps or mA the battery charger can produce.
Can a 350mA charger be exchanged for a 800mA battery charger?
Yes, a 800mA charger can be used in place of a 350 mA charger. The number represents the maximum amount of current that the charger is designed to produce. The main thing to look for is that the output voltages are the same rating in both chargers.
How rectifier transformer convert ac to dc energy?
The transformer produces AC at the required voltage, and then one, two or four diodes are connected to it to produce pulsating DC, which is then smoothed to DC by a series inductor, or, in low-power supplies, by a parallel reservoir capacitor. A single diode is called a half wave rectifier because it passes the positive half of the wave and suppresses the negative. Two diodes in conjunction with a centre-tap on the secondary make a full wave rectifier, while four diodes can be connected as a bridge rectifier, which is also full-wave and does not need a centre-tap.
How do you charge a battery using dynamo?
A "Dynamo" is a DC charger; these will overcharge any battery there is and requires a regulator circuit, they will produce voltage proportional to their rotation. Simply hook it to the battery (watch your positive and negative) and crank the generator / dynamo.
Should you set your car battery recharger to 6 volt or twelve volt?
The charger needs to be set to charge for the voltage that the battery is designed to produce. Most car batteries are 12 volt batteries.
What is the usage of transformer?
The usage of transformer is to produce electricity from a main electric unit
How do you produce a step-up transformer in an ordinary transformer?
Transformer function is either to step-up or down the voltage. There is nothing like an ordinary transformer.
How can you use step down transformer of 240 v ac to 24 v dc as step up transformer?
A step down transformer has a higher voltage (in this case 240v) primary and a lower voltage (in this case 24v) secondary. A step up transformer has a lower voltage primary and higher voltage secondary. In reality the transformer doesn't care which is which, so if you wire the 24v side as the primary and the 240v side as the secondary, you have a step up transformer. You might want to stick a fan on it to be sure it doesn't overheat, but that's all you need do.AnswerFrom your question, it sounds as though you are describing a power supply, rather than a transformer, as you specify the output is 24-V d.c. (direct current). Unfortunately, you cannot apply 24-V d.c. to the output side of a power supply, in order to obtain a 240-V a.c. output at the input side! This is because a power supply consists of a transformer to step down the a.c. voltage, and a rectifier (and, possibly, a smoothing filter) to produce a d.c. output. Applying d.c. to the input of a rectifier will not produce the a.c. necessary to run your transformer in the opposite direction!
