No, it should not be done,and could wreck the battery and component.

Get the right power pack from the MFG of the product or get a match for it at radio shack.

What do you do to change the voltage of a 12 volt battery to a 6 volt output?

To change the voltage of a 12-volt battery to a 6-volt output, you can use a voltage regulator or a step-down transformer. A voltage regulator will reduce the voltage to the desired 6 volts, while a step-down transformer will step down the voltage from 12 volts to 6 volts. Both options will help you achieve a stable 6-volt output.


Can you use 15 watt converter for 9 volt appliance?

It is not recommended to use a 15 watt converter for a 9 volt appliance as the voltage output may be too high, potentially damaging the appliance. It is best to use a converter that provides the correct voltage output for the appliance to ensure safe operation.


Can a 575 volt drive power a 480 volt motor?

It is not recommended to power a 480 volt motor with a 575 volt drive as the drive output voltage may exceed the motor's insulation rating, potentially causing damage to the motor. It is best to use a drive that matches the motor's voltage rating to ensure safe and efficient operation.


Will a 240 volt string of Christmas lights work on a 110 volt socket?

No, a 240 volt string of Christmas lights is designed to be used with a 240 volt socket. Plugging it into a 110 volt socket may damage the lights and pose a safety hazard. Be sure to always use lights with the correct voltage rating.


Can you run 12 volt DC adapter equipment with a 12 volt transformer?

The output of a 12 volt transformer is an alternating current (AC). Your adapter is a 12 volt transformer but it has a built in half wave or, more expensive ones, a full wave bridge rectifier. What this rectifier does is change AC to DC. Bridge rectifiers are cheap to purchase. Connect it to the output of the 12 volt transformer and you will get a DC voltage. Great little project.

What is the procedure for checking alternator output current?

Use a digital volt meter set to the 20 volt DC scale. A good alternator will output 13.5 to 15.5 volts.


How do you get 12 volt output from logic gates?

The easiest way is to use a logic family such as CMOS that can operate at supplies up to 15 volts. If you're using 5-volt TTL, the only way to get more than about 4 volts signal output is to use a transformer.


Can use 14.4 volt charger to charge 18 volt battery?

Charger Output Voltage versus Battery VoltageNO, the output voltage of a charger must be greater than the rated voltage of the battery, usually at least one and a half to two volts difference.

What will happen if you use a 14 volt output in a 12 volt input?

Shouldn't be a problem. For example the unloaded voltage on a car battery is often around 14 Volts. Under load the voltage reduces.


How do you convert 240 volts to 1.5 volts?

There are several ways to convert a 240 volt input to a 1.5 volt output. If the 240 volt input is alternating current (AC), a simple transformer can reduce the 240 volts to 1.5 volts (AC). A properly configured resistor or impedance coil in series with the input and output would also do the job but a tansformer also serves to isolate the output from the input offering greater protection for the 1.5 volt device. You If 1.5 volts direct current (DC) is required, a rectifier circuit is needed after the 1.5 volt AC output. If the source is 240 volts (DC), A resistance circuit in series can reduce the output voltage. You can also use electronic circuitry to chop of the 1.5 volts.


Can you use a 130 volt light bulb on a 120 volt supply?

Yes, in fact that is what a rough service bulb is rated at. The bulb used on a 120 volt system will have a reduced wattage output as to what it would be on 130 volts.

How do you check if your alternator is still good?

I use a Digital Volt/ohm meter and test the output of the alternator at the battery or at the main output terminal of the alt. If I'm still in doubt i pull the alt and have it tested at Autozone for free.


Can you charge a car battery with a motorcycle battery charger?

Unless it's an old vw bug, cars usually run on a 12 volt dc system nowadays. Motorcycles often run on a 6 volt dc system. Different systems require different charging voltages so you won't ever be able to charge a 12 volt car battery from a 6 volt motorcycle battery charger as the output voltage would be way too low. However, if you can set the battery charger's output to give either a 6 or a 12 volt output, then you must always remember to set it to 12 volts if you want to use it to charge a 12 volt car battery.
