Battery charging works best at amperages reflecting the capacity of the battery. Car batteries at around 10 amps. 2 is considered a finishing or equalizing charge rate. Less would be a "trickle charge", at best. Trickle charge isn't usually enough for a good charge. Furthermore, lead acid...

@Tom @Fool

Agree with Fool, I read that for optimal charging, one should aim for a voltage between 13.8 and 14.4 volts, known as the 'float' or 'trickle charge' voltage, to safely and efficiently charge a 12V car battery.

8 amps would be a good charge rate for a 12V car battery. That's 12*8 = 96 Watts An unpressurised SE using air making 100W might be fairly chunky unless its of Andy Ross level sophistication. Possibly bigger and heavier than my 40 year old Honda EG550 sidevalve generator, which will make 450W conti...

Thanks!

Tom it seems we're back in business :)

Not only were the bot removed, you can now post again, and it seems the phpbb board was updated.

If not, how many small SE would it take to do so? Looking for things on the market today, things that have been built in the past, DIY's; anything. Working fluid being air (preferably not pressurized).

Ok thanks for letting me know.

Oh, how do you know it's a spam bot post?

I also get this message when submitting [phpBB Debug] PHP Warning: in file [ROOT]/includes/functions_messenger.php on line 506: count(): Parameter must be an array or an object that implements Countable [phpBB Debug] PHP Warning: in file [ROOT]/includes/functions.php on line 1836: Cannot modify head...

Can I ask for a weird favor? I must be doing something wrong but it seems I can not create a new post (despite having permission to do so), nor can I contact the mod/admin. I have cleared cache, deleted the board cookies, restarted, logged out and in again; disabled extensions. The main issue is tha...

Thanks guys.

Are there any examples of a Stirling engine being enclosed with something to suppress the sound from it?
