!±8± BuildLog - Portable RC Power Station pt 1

London RC Project blog: www.rc-forc3.com RC Sparks forums www.rcsparks.com This is the first episode of my Portable RC Power station. This project is inspired by the need for a field charging and entertainment system to be used during RC flying or bashing trips to the park. The planned features include * 300W 220V AC inverter with wall sockets * 12V DC ~100 Ah deep cycle leisure (aka marine) battery * Stereo speaker system with 3.5mm jack * LiPo battery charger (50W, upgrade to 2x300W planned) * Separate USB power (for those weak mobile phone batteries!) * Actively ventilated compartment (case-fan) * Multimeter build thread: www.rcsparks.com Music: PipeMerchant for rc-forc3.com

Optima Battery - 3 Distinctive Battery Types Capable of Supplying Your Entire Vehicles Power Needs

!±8± Optima Battery - 3 Distinctive Battery Types Capable of Supplying Your Entire Vehicles Power Needs

The majority of vehicles will use a RedTop Optima battery with a strong 5 second starting burst for its primary function of starting a vehicles motor. Immediately after ignition the vehicles alternator will constantly monitor how much charge remains in the RedTop battery and whether or not to provide top up battery recharging power.

Examples of some vehicles which would use this particular battery would be heavy equipment, diesel powered, hot rods, RV and automotive.But what if my vehicle does not have an alternator or requires the use of higher electrical loads?

In this case it would be best to then use a YellowTop Optima battery as it will have a higher discharge cycle compared to the RedTop batteries. Thus making it suitable for drag/racing cars, electric autos, snowploughs, as well as many other aftermarket vehicle accessories such as GPS, chargers, fridges, winches, hydraulics, inverter systems and specialized audio/video installations which require greater than 250 watts more power above that of the vehicles original equipment spec.

I heard that the BlueTop Optima battery should be used for deep cycling applications. This is true for the light greyed BlueTop cases, however there is a distinct difference between the YellowTop and BlueTop deep cycle batteries in that the BlueTop deep cycle batteries have 2 sets of posts - automotive (SAE) and threaded, whilst the YellowTop batteries excluding model D31T only have SAE posts.

An added feature of the dual purpose light greyed BlueTop batteries is that they also have a very high cranking power which makes them suitable for starting applications as well. Examples of where this type of Optima battery is used are with trolling motors and marine/RV applications where excessive electrical energy is required.

It should be noted that if a marine/RV application requires only the use of the starting feature of a BlueTop battery then it would be best to use a BlueTop battery with a dark grey case as it has been specifically manufactured for this purpose alone.

Forget about all the primary colored Optima battery top details, just give me the facts?

Use dark gray casing batteries for starting applications only and light gray cased deep cycle batteries for dual purpose operations.

It is important to remember that a deep cycle application will usually result in discharging a battery between 60% and 70% of its capacity whereas a SLI (starting / lighting / ignition) battery is designed to push out maximum power for a short period discharging between 1% and 3%. It is therefore not advisable to use an SLI battery for deep cycling applications as its battery life will be shortened depending on how regularly it is deep cycled.

DIY Solar Panels For Home, Shop or Farm

!±8± DIY Solar Panels For Home, Shop or Farm

Thanks to modern technology supplying electrical power to remote areas of your farm, or emergency power for your shop or home, is so much easier and more efficient than it used to be. In recent years manufacturers have developed solar cells that will pump out reliable electrical energy for years, and they are now really affordable if you buy them right. The solar cells that are available by just searching the Internet are designed to put out a small amount of electricity when they see the sun, and simply by wiring them together you can produce enough power to run a pump, emergency lighting, fence charger or have the ability to run power tools in remote areas. How about powering heating mats or lamps for chicks or puppies out in the barn?

There are lots of solar panels kits for sale on the Internet, but they have one problem in common; they are too expensive and cost too much to ship. Also, you may not get enough information about how to assemble, install and use the panels once you get them. For small jobs or intermittent duty it only takes a panel big enough to produce 18-24 volts DC, a battery and a small inverter, if you want AC power. A panel of this size uses 36 solar cells or so, and you'll soon find that they can be ordered online for very little cost, and shipping might even be free. The rest of the materials needed to assemble a working solar panel can be bought right down town, so it just doesn't make sense to order a complete kit and pay 3-4 times as much to get a panel that does exactly the same thing.

The fact is you can get everything you need to build your own solar panel for around 0 that will be just as good as one you might order as a kit, and with some good instructions just about anyone who knows how to use basic hand tools can build a panel right in the garage or on the kitchen table, if you prefer. Once you assemble a solar panel the lead wire is attached to a 12V battery; it's best to use a deep cycle type like a marine battery because a standard car battery is not made to be discharged repeatedly like your system will require. Then an inverter is used to pull from the battery power and produce 110 volts AC power to run your tools or appliances, and again you can get one right in town that will work just fine.

If you find that your project requires more power than one solar panel will handle, you can simply build more and wire the solar panels together in parallel to produce more wattage. A nice little system for backup or emergency power can be built for a few hundred dollars instead of a few thousand dollars that pre-made kits will cost, and you will find a DIY solar panel project to be fun and easy.
