Saving A Car BatteryYes it can. Especially cell phone chargers. If your battery is already weak it is best to turn off the radio, A/C, interior lights etc. when turning off your car. If your alternator ever starts to go out on you while driving turn off anything that may pull from it, except the engine of course, and it will give you a little more time to get off the road or to the nearest gas station before going out completely.

It actually depends on the car. Some cigarete lighters are wire to the fuse panel (these will drain when car is off) and some are wired to the ignition switch (these will only drain when the car's ignition is on).

What size 12 volt battery would you need to run a 1000 watt inverter for 15 minutes?

When using the Inverter the CCU can be adapted to the users needs. A regular 12 volt battery would work on any small devices.


How do you charge battery on S320 when trunk is locked?

Through the cigarette lighter.


What inverter would you need to run 600watt light and could also put a heavy duty battery charger on to charge the battery bk up that runs the inverter in the first place and can it be done free power?

There is no free power. Inverters always waste some power; they are not 100% efficient. You can't take as much power out of a battery as you put in to it.


What is the backup time of a 600Va inverter with a 135Ah 12v battery?

((135AH*12V)/600VA)*85%Efficiency=2.20Hrs


What is the Working of online ups?

Online UPS on the other hand uses an Inverter which always on to give sine wave AC in the output socket. The incoming AC is first converted into DC by a transformer to charge the battery as well as to give power to the inverter transformer. The inverter transformer converts the DC to AC continuously to power the load. If power fails, the battery backup circuit switches on and takes the load. Online UPS is more efficient than the Offline UPS and uses a "Constant duty Inverter". It also has a "Static bypass" system that transfers the load to the AC power if the inverter system fails. The advantage of the Online UPS is that, it clean up the AC waveform by converting it into DC then reconverting this DC to fresh AC.

When using truck battery with inverter can vehicle still remain running?

Most inverters will not be harmed by charging the battery [running the engine while the inverter is connected]. However, for safety [inverters are expensive] it is best that the Owner/User Manual be consulted to make sure that it is safe to charge the battery while the inverter is connected.


How do you make an inverter that stores the energy produced from a dynamo?

To store energy produced from a dynamo, you can incorporate a battery into the system. The dynamo generates electricity, which can be used to charge the battery. An inverter can then be connected to the battery to convert the stored DC energy into AC power for use when needed.


Is it possible to run a dryer to do laundry off a car battery with no problem?

No, the battery connected to an inverter would not have near enough power to run a dryer.

Can AAA Batteries to be connected with Inverter to step up AC volt?

No, the capacity of the battery is too low to be of any use.


Will a solar powered battery charger connected to the cigarette lighter of a Nissan almera equation charge the battery without turning on the ignition?

If the cigarette lighter would normally work without turning on the ignition, yes.


If a battery has 100 amp hours at 12 volts dc how many amp hours will it have with a 120 volt ac inverter connected?

The amp hours capacity of a battery remains the same whether it is connected to a 12-volt DC load or a 120-volt AC inverter. So, the battery would still have 100 amp hours regardless of the inverter voltage.


How do you power a 1500 watt AC appliance in a car?

You can buy an "inverter." It plugs into the cigarette lighter or accessory plug or directly clips to the battery terminals and converts the 12 volt DC to AC. You can then plug your appliance into it. Be sure to get an inverter that is the right wattage capacity for your device.


Can a 350w inverter plug into a battery?

The whole purpose of an inverter is to convert DC to AC.Mainly, you should check the voltage of the inverter, and of the battery - they should match.As to the 350 watt: the battery must be able to provide that much power. Check the battery specifications. Actually, it is also possible that you take less power from the battery - it really depends what devices you connect to the inverter.


Can old normal inverter be connected with a solar panel and charge controller. you normally have inverters in your house. Can the same inverter be connected to solar panel and charge controller?

Yes, Its good alternate solution but by using non-solar inverter it requires manual switching. (Solar charge controller will no longer works) & In Solar inverter, its easy switching & more life (solar inverter manufacturers gives max 5 years warranty) As we use more panels in parallel it charges battery quickly.
