What do you do if you ingested battery acid?

Hazards of Battery AcidAutomotive battery acid is Sulphuric Acid [H2SO4] which will literally "eat" through clothing or skin.

If you were to "snort" Sulphuric Acid, even huff the fumes from it, it will burn the tender skin of your nose, throat, Bronchial tubes, and lungs.

Snorting battery acid, or huffing its fumes, will not give you any good feelings, or highs,

BUT it WILL damage the tissues of your body with which it makes contact, and in the best case scenario, will cause blistering of those tissues, but depending on the extent of exposure, could burn your lungs so bad that they cannot absorb Oxygen [O2] and expel Carbon Dioxide [CO2], and you will die a miserable death!!!!!

And that's guaranteed!!!!!

How do you hook up 12 volt lights to a 36 volt battery system?

To hook up 12 volt lights to a 36 volt battery system, you will need to use a voltage regulator to step down the voltage from 36 volts to 12 volts. This regulator will ensure that the lights receive the correct voltage to operate without being damaged by the higher voltage of the battery system. Be sure to consult an electrician or someone with experience in electrical work to ensure a safe and proper installation.

Can a cucumber fruit extract be able to produce electricity?

No, a cucumber fruit extract cannot produce electricity on its own. Electricity generation typically requires a source of energy, such as a chemical reaction or a physical process like a generator, to produce electrical power. Cucumber fruit extract does not possess the necessary properties to generate electricity.

What does car battery acid look like?

How many D batteries would it take to power a 52 volt light bulb?

Assuming a standard D battery has a voltage of 1.5 volts, it would take approximately 35 D batteries (52 volts / 1.5 volts per battery = 34.67). However, in reality, you cannot directly power a 52 volt light bulb using D batteries as the voltages do not match.

How long will a 12v 2.5ah battery run a 3w LED?

A 12V 2.5Ah battery can power a 3W LED for approximately 10 hours. This calculation is based on the formula: Battery life (in hours) = Battery capacity (in Ah) / Load power (in A). In this case, 2.5Ah / (3W / 12V) = 10 hours.

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.

Do quickcharge household battery chargers damage or shorten the life of rechargeable batteries as opposed to slow or regular chargers?

Not significantly. So long as it is done using a properly designed smart charger, most NiMH batteries can be recharged in about an hour without any damage or significant reduction in their life. However, NiMH batteries must only be rapid charged with a charger specifically designed for charging NiMH batteries. Chargers designed to rapidly charge NiCd batteries can overcharge NiMH batteries. While it may be true that rapid charging NiMH batteries can reduce battery life by a small amount (probably less than 10%), this should be more than offset by the inconvenience of always slow charging batteries.

What factors affect the cell capacity of a battery?

Several physical factors affect the capacity, including the quantity of active materials; the number, design, and the dimensions of the plates; and the electrolyte concentration. Operational factors affecting capacity include discharge rate, charging method, temperature, age, and conditions of the cell or battery.

Are 12v batteries actually 13.8v?

Yes, a fully charged 12V battery can measure around 13.8V. This is because the voltage can vary based on factors such as the state of charge and temperature of the battery.

Nearly the last metallic element in the alphabet and used in batteries?

Zinc is the last metallic element in the alphabet and is commonly used in batteries due to its ability to function as an anode. It is a versatile element that helps providing power in various electronic devices.

I have a Charger that charges AA 2000mah and also charges AAA 800mah will it charge AAA 1800mah?

Yes, your charger should be able to charge AAA 1800mAh batteries. It is common for battery chargers to be able to charge multiple capacities of batteries as long as they are compatible with the chemistry (e.g. NiMH, NiCd) and size (AA, AAA). Just make sure to follow the manufacturer's instructions for optimal performance and safety.

What type of Battery does a Fossil brain technology watch have?

Fossil watches with hybrid smartwatch technology use a replaceable coin cell battery, typically a CR2430 or CR2450. These batteries last for several months to a year, depending on usage. It's recommended to use the specific battery type suggested by Fossil to ensure optimal performance.

Are ryobi and homelite 18 volt batteries the same?

No, Ryobi and Homelite typically have different battery systems even though they are both 18 volts. They are not interchangeable between brands due to variations in design and compatibility. It is important to use the correct battery for your specific power tool brand.

How many watts does a 36 volt battery charger use?

Assuming 100% efficiency, a 36-volt battery charger would use 36 watts per hour to charge the battery fully. However, it's important to consider that chargers are not 100% efficient and may draw slightly more power from the wall.

What does 8Ahmean on a 12 volt battery?

Amp hours is a battery rating. It means that this battery can sustain 1 amp for 8 hours up to 8 amps for 1 hour. Depending on what the current draw is on the load will determine the length of time the battery will last.

How many volts is an AG10 button battery?

What do you call lamp shades that are put on the lamp base before the light bulb screws in?

If you are talking about the support that holds the lampshade to the lamp base it is called a "lamp harp".

What size battery do you use for trolling motor?

Usually trolling motors are 12 volts DC. You should find the amperage of the motor. Batteries are rated in amp hours. This means that the capacity of the battery will produce a certain amount of amps for a certain amount of hours. If your battery is 500 amp hours it will use any combination of amps and hours up to 500. If your motor draws 20 amps it will drain the battery in 25 hours or 10 amps it will take 50 hours to drain. By paralleling batteries you increase the draw down time. The amp hour capacities of added batteries are added together. Be sure and purchase a Deep Cycle Battery.

Can battery chargers for golf carts be repaired?

You can usually repair anything if you know what is wrong with the item and can get spare parts. With a battery charger you basically have a transformer, some big capacitors and a charging control circuit. Unfortunately the typical handy person may not have the test tools available to do the diagnostic. Possible problems and troubleshooting techniques:

1. See if there is a small reset button somewhere. Look for a small hole in the case and word RESET.

2. See if there is a small glass fuse inside the case on a printed circuit board or behind a push and twist black protrusion near where the input power cord enters the unit. There should be an intact wire in middle of fuse. If burnt replace fuse with same rating shown on the case.

3. If you have a voltmeter and know how to use it open the case and measure primary voltage which should be about 120 V. If not you have a bad wire or ON/OFF switch if you have fixed all fuses and resets.

4. Measure the voltage on the output side of the transformer. It should be about the voltage of the battery being charged. If no voltage or low voltage you have a bad transformer. If Voltage is correct then you have a bad capacitor or PC board.

What does reversing the direction of the electron flow in the battery do?

The voltage measured across every component in the circuit would take on

the opposite polarity from what it was originally. If there are any diodes in

the circuit, then current might stop flowing in some branches where it formerly

existed, or start flowing in branches where there was no current before.
