Re: 12 volt battery, natural gas charged. Natural gas range and fridge
Batteries are not user friendly... If you design a system "conservatively", it helps keep the batteries happy. Checking voltage, specific gravity (if flooded cell), and just watching for so…1 · -
Re: GaAs temperature coefficient
This data sheet give some single (bare) cell specifications you asked for: http://www.spectrolab.com/DataSheets/SJCell/sj.pdf Temperature Coefficients (1x10^15 1 MeV e/cm²) relative to 28C standard t…1 · -
Re: medium size newbies battery bank size off grid
It depends on chemistry too... Typical deep cycle flooded cell lead acid batteries need to be cycled to keep the plates in proper condition. It seems that cycling a FLA d.c. battery once a month betw…2 · -
Re: 12 volt battery, natural gas charged. Natural gas range and fridge
Doug, I have moved your thread to the general Off Grid systems forum. (I missed that you are in a cabin in your first post). Propane (and natural gas?) refrigerators tend to have issues with needing …1 · -
Re: 12 volt battery, natural gas charged. Natural gas range and fridge
Welcome to the forum DJ, There are "fuel cells" which sound ideal... They are built like batteries with plates in a box. But you introduce hydrogen and oxygen and the "low temperature&…1 ·
