FAQ

I need to replace the batteries for my little brother's walkie talkies. They are uniden, and use a rechargeable battery pack. Can I just put 3 single rechargeable batteries in them instead?
If the radio has spots for them, yes, but you need to take them out to charge them on a standard charger for that type of battery. To charge in the radio, you need the special Uniden batteries.
I have a nyko charging station for my xbox 360 controllers but they wont hold a charge anymore. I put them on the dock station and it says they are charged after like 15 mins but then they dont last very long. Wasnt sure if it would be the battery packs or the dock station.
I would say it's the battery packs. They don't usually last much longer than a year or so.
And for how long? The continuous power consumption is 12v at 2 amps.
Your batteries will have to be in SERIES to get the 12 volts. 1.2 volts each X 10 12 volts @ 2 Ahr or 2000 milliamp hours (mah). So in theory, one hour. Reality is that the cells will not actually produce 2 amps for 1 hour without the voltage dropping off. So a rating of about 10% of the capacity is recommended. Your battery pack would work for 5 to 10 minutes before draining them down at 2 amps and would get very hot in the process! Switching to a 12V gel cell or 10 D batteries would be better.
I bought a Canon VIXIA HF R300 Camcorder a few months ago, and I noticed a message saying to change the battery pack almost as soon as I turned it on. I just decided to wait and see what that meant, since I didn't know why it would need it; I had literally just gotten the camera. Now when I turn on the video camera it says that message every time, and when I go to look at the videos I've recorded it pops up there too. When I'm recording the battery drains REALLY fast. Why is it doing this?How do I fix it?
Are you charging the battery according to the instructions in the manual? If so, you have a defective battery.
i dont know what the difference is between the ac adapter and battery pack.does one of the two make battery life last longer?
the ac adapter is for when you have a plug around, and as long as you have power going into your house you can play your psp, batteries are for when you are on the go and will have limited play time
I ordered a canon powershot g10 and just realized i got a lithium battery pack NOT a lithium-ion battery pack.I have heard lithium-ion lasts much longer.However it says I could buy a 2 - 5 hour extended life battery for the lithium battery.Should I cancel the order and buy a pack with lithium-ion? Or just buy one of the extended life batteries?
??it sounds like your talking about Canon the song, and lithium the song. i'm sorry im not help.
I am thinking if the bike comes with SLA batteries of 10Ah, I could cheaply make a NiMH pack with 2Ah (bunch of AA cells) to boost performance. I am thinking of connecting it parallel to the SLA batteries (+ to +, - to -). I am thinking this will slow the discharge rate on the SLA and also reduce the depth of discharge, causing the SLA batteries to have much a longer life cycle.
It's difficult to mix different type of batteries. The lead acid battery has a nominal voltage of 2.1 V per cell, and an end voltage of 1.75 V per cell. In a typical 6 cell battery, this means 12.6 V charged to 10.5 V discharged. For a 10 cell NiMH pack, the values are 12 V -10 V. The ranges are close, but you would either need to undercharge your primary SLA battery, or you would be overcharging your NiMH batteries to 12.6 V (about 5% over). This may progressively shorten the life of the NiMH batteries. You might consider charging the packs separately, and then connecting (via a switch) the NiMH pack in parallel after the SLA has been run down a little. Of course, the best option would be to use a second SLA battery. If the charging circuit is smart, then it should be able to charge both SLA batteries in parallel. You could also use them in parallel. If you are in a sunny area, you could even tie in a PV array designed for 12.6 V parallel applications.
I have a battery pack that looks like it's 16 D batteries joined together with single plug. Seems to be a pack that would be used to power display merchandise in stores, such as games.
By value do you mean cash value? I have no idea. Probably not much, who wants the expense of buying 16 D cells. If you electrical value, it will depend on how the batteries are connected together. It could be anywhere from 1.5 volts up to 48 volts.
