What is the mha rating of standard of AA alkaline batteies?

A non-rechargeable AA battery has a mAh capacity of about 400-900. Zinc Chloride batteries store between 1000 to 1500 mAh, while alkaline batteries can store between 1700 to 3000 mAh.

Why do you think only solar cells and not dry cells or automobile batteries are used in satellites?

the others require a medium in order to transmit and recieve the signals from outer space

What will a battery need if it gets run down?

It will need to be recharged and if it will not accept a charge it will need to be replaced.

Can a 3.7v or 7.4v li-po battery power a 5v device without spoiling it?

Yes a 3.7v or 7.4v li-po battery can power a 5v device without spoiling it because P=IV.

Comparing Lithium Batteries To Alkaline Batteries?

Lithium batteries use some type of lithium in their construction and are different from more traditional alkaline batteries. One of the key features of lithium batteries is the increase in the amount of electricity that is produced from a certain size of battery when compared to alkaline batteries. This feature also has a drawback, however, since a lithium battery can have a very harmful reaction when short circuited inside of a device. This can actually cause the battery to discharge electricity and heat very quickly, potentially igniting the battery itself.

Can batteries be recharged by sun exposure?

No, unless you have custom-made rechargeable batteries. It might be possible to build a battery with a built-in solar panel, but it probably wouldn't fit on a "regular" AA battery. It would take a car, or other similarly sized, battery to fit a solar panel. It might also be possible to make a device with that uses solar panels to recharge smaller batteries.

But leaving a regular battery in the sun will not recharge it.

How do you clean a battery holder?

Remove the battery and rinse the holder with clean water from a garden hose. After cleaning sprinkle baking soda on the area to neutralize the acid. Let set for 15 minutes and then rinse clean. Let air dry and replace the battery.

Why won't my new solar light work outside I have checked the battery and it works fine inside?

Because it is day time and the light will only switch on at night? A lot of solar lights have a photo sensor, light sensor, that prevents it from using up energy when it is light out. You can cover up the sensor and it will turn on.

Why would dashboard message say that battery no charge?

Answer 1 - Message, "Battery no charge"That tells us that there is some defect in the charging circuit or battery that is preventing the battery frome being charged.

How much are Pandora batterys?

PSPoutlet.com sells them for $12 that's where i got mine works great, they also ship free and accept paypal =D

Can you charge a battery with solar panel producing 245 watts?

You can't charge the battery with those 245 watts unless they are being 'pumped into' the battery at a higher voltage than the battery puts out. If you can exceed the voltage of the battery, that 245 watts will definitely charge a battery.

Why series arrangement of batteries brighter than parallel arrangement of batteries?

Connecting batteries in series increases available voltage. Connecting them in parallel increases available current. Ohm's law states that when resistance is constant (and a light bulb is a constant resistance, to a point), the current flowing through will be directly proportional to the voltage. And when the voltage doesn't change, the only way to change the flowing current is to lower the resistance - as in, put in a smaller light bulb.

What should you pay attention to for your new-bought hp hstnn-lb11 battery?

For the best care for your newly bought HP HSTNN-IB11 battery, you should keep the battery at a proper room temperature. Pay attention to the charge of the battery power and do not utilize the battery when you have the AC plugged in. This could potentially drain the battery over time.

What size power adapter would be used for a cordless water pump that takes two double A batteries?

it depends how the batteries are connected.

if you put the batteries both in positive side up you probably have a 1.5 volt system.

if you put one battery positive side up and one down you probably have a 3 volt system.

Check to make sure before you connect anything because you can damage the the water pump by connecting it to the wrong voltage or by reversing polarity.

if its a 1.5 volt system you have about 2000 milliamp/hours at you disposal

in a 3 volt system you have about 1000 milliamp/hours at you disposal

find the the time in hours the water pump will run on a new set of batteries will last.

1.5v 2000 mAh/1hour= 2000mAh 1.5volt power adaptor

1.5v 2000 mAh/2hour= 1000mAh 1.5volt power adaptor

1.5v 2000 mAh/3hour= 667mAh 1.5volt power adaptor

1.5v 2000 mAh/4hour= 500mAh 1.5volt power adaptor

1.5v 2000 mAh/5hour= 400mAh 1.5volt power adaptor

1.5v 2000 mAh/6 hour= 334mAh 1.5volt power adaptor

3v 1000 mAh/1hour= 1000mAh 3volt power adaptor

3v 1000 mAh/2hour= 500mAh 3volt power adaptor

3v 1000 mAh/3hour= 334 mAh 3volt power adaptor

3v 1000 mAh/4hour= 250 mAh 3volt power adaptor

3v 1000 mAh/5hour= 200mAh 3volt power adaptor

Remember as Tim the Toolman would say more mAh is better.

How do you equalize a 6 volt marine battery with a 12 volt charger?

If you are asking the question, can you charge a 6 volt battery with a 12 volt charger, the answer is no.

How do you change battery in a Monte Carlo?

You have to unscrew the bar that sits over it to get to the battery. a real pain

Can you use 3 12 volt batteries instead of 6 6volt batteries on a golf cart?

That depends on how the batteries were wired, for what voltage. If they were to provide a 6 volt source, then yes, but not for very long as the 12 volts would burn the motors out very quickly. If they were wired to provide for 18 volts then yes, but it won't run very fast because of the low voltage.

What is the Battery acid to distilled water ratio for a marine battery?

Most will recommend a 1/3 acid to 2/3 distilled water mix. I have went %50 %50 on older batteries without issue and they lasted another 3yrs. Hope this helps.
