Four 4, 8 Volt 2000mA Nickel Cadmium batteries. Does anybody here know a safe way of initial charging those batteries from a lab power supply I do not have a NiCad charger so I need to make one. Any circuit drawings of a simple NiCad charger I will be glad to get some help on this. I have four 4, 8 Volt 2000mA Nickel Cadmium batteries.

from a lab power supply I do not have a NiCad charger so I need to make one. Any circuit drawings of a simple NiCad charger I will be glad to get some help on this. You have a minimum of 4*4. 8 V input voltage need + the required voltage drop of either the LM317 or the transistors, so you need to choose your power supply output accordingly. I think you need some heat sink on the active pass device too. Well that sure is a lot of trannies but if it works, great deal. I have finally decided to put together a relay powered one to play with. Had to pack the relays in foam to quiet them down. Was very surprised to find what I did. Using 4 4. 5 ah 12v and driving a 1amp motor, I already have 4. 5 hours run time logged and have dropped from 13v down to 12. 8. I have a switch time of around 12 a second. I am depleting the batteries but at a very slow rate. At 1 amp, I should have killed the bats by now. So to conclude, I see this upping the run effective run time for the motor. As I intend to run an electric motor to power my bike, this should give me a greater distance of travel overall. Will look into solid state relays for the switching as they will trigger on 5 v and can use a 555 to run the pulse train with. The other board still has a heat problem with transistor 6 and I cannot figure out why. I have been over the circuit many times and its wired exactly as the diagram states. The only problem is if I lose a relay, I will...
This project fits more for custom made battery casing that can have more space to hide things inside. This switch with few alterations can be used for any other project as well but is designed based on e-bike needs! This project use a clever functionality of....
The circuit described here uses ultrasonic oscillations and operates based on the propagation velocity of these oscillations in the air. Thus, we can easily determine the distance of two points if the time within which the wave travels this distance is....
Sometimes the precious metals are hidden too deep and are not detected except with complicated devices. In many cases, however, small pieces of precious metal buried near the surface can be detected by relatively simple means. Everyone is very attractive to....
Many times for various reasons we forget or can not water the plants that we have in our homes. And many humidity sensors units just notify us with a beeping sound or with a flashing light, that the pot needs watering. But what if we are away from home? This....
The principle behind a metal detector is really very simple. Proof of this is the circuit that follows, in which it proves that the construction of a metal detector can be done in the minute, with few components that we find very easily everywhere. With the....
The sub-harmonic bass generator is a sound producing unit for guitars. The sound it produces looks very much like that of the bass guitar. The octave generator is sometimes quite unusual since it does not produce any of the usual ways of coloring the sound,....
In the past the sounding (sea bottom measurement) was done with the "bullet", that is, with a heavy lead object that the seamen plucked into the sea hung from a calibrated rope. As soon as the "bullet" reached the bottom, the depth appeared directly from the....
This Amplifier was designed to have the following specifications: Distortion less than 0.1% at full power of 100W even at 20KHz. Power has to be attributed to an extended bandwidth. The output transistors must be protected against short circuits. The power....
A series of LEDs serve to alert the gardener when plants need water. Using two conventional digital integrated LEDs and a series of LEDs, we make a very useful device for gardening. The device detects the amount of water in the pot and alerts the grower.....
