This maybe off topic but i need a little electronic advice on my
charger setup:
I need to charge a alot of different voltage lead acid batterys
6,8,10,12, ect. I have a
old charger that only puts out 12-14vdc, I have a 10amp 120vac
powerstat (variac) im thinking
of adding to the input of the transformer to reduce output . Will this
work?
Im not sure about hte inductance & operating a transformer @ 1/2 or
2/3 the normal 120 vac
input voltage, im wandering if this will effect efficiency or if it
will work at all.
If your charger is just a transformer and rectifiers it will work OK as a
"dumb" charger of lower voltage. The transformer won't mind working at a
lower voltage, efficiency will be comparable.
