What kind of 12 volt battery? I am currently using a lead-acid battery. Well, I got that because of my friend which is also a hobbyist of electricity. He'd got a lot of them! In PH, it costs about 22 dollars.Which are quite expensive. Lightfire is on a very limited budget. When I was his age I supplemented my model rocket fix with lawn mowing.
Lightfire, where did you get that 12V battery!?
When I lived in the Philippines about 25 years ago (Quezon City/Cebu/Zamboanga City) it was pretty common for people to use small motorcycle (tricycle) batteries for powering radios and small lights. There usually was a battery shop that recharged them for a few pesos with a generator.Actually, it is about 1/3 of a car battery. It's not sealed. I guess. But no no, when my friend gave it to me, it's brand new.
It's rated as 12V/12AH
That sounds like a Gel Cel (Gelled Lead Acid Battery) if it only has 12AH capacity.Actually, it is about 1/3 of a car battery. It's not sealed. I guess. But no no, when my friend gave it to me, it's brand new.
