Tired.
Going to wind down early.

Goodnight Tibs, Fran, AG, Dale (if you're even still here ), OBG, Katmar, snails that have left (Gracie, Bear, others).

 

[oldbikeguy]

NCIS is on!!!

Dang I'll be back !!

 

[FranC]

Goodnight,Atty

 

[AttyPops]

Dang I'll be back !!

Not you too........

 

[tiburonfirst]

night, atty! and dale and obg!

You want high-discharge batteries for those high-watt mods. Remember Volts X amps = watts. So the bigger the watts it can put out, the more amps the battery as to be able to put out (voltage is pretty much same for all in a mech, but variable in those mods). So high-watt-mod = high-amp-battery.

And for theory/trivia/notes...use 4.2 volts for the voltage calc, or even use the low end at 3.5. Since Watts = Volts x amps....you can say that necessary amps = watts/volts (plus some overhead). So for a 70 watt mod, a battery would have to put out at least 70/3.5 + overhead which equals approximately 20 amps (so go higher, like 30 amps or more continuous discharge rating) due to overhead and also variable voltage and safety margin...

In reality, check the website and/or manufacturer's recommendations. Do research. Different mod circuits may have different characteristics. Then there's mechs.

The real trick is finding quality batteries. IMR or better tech highly recommended.

I'm here....late again, but I'm here!
Goodnight, Dale, and I forget who else!

Goodnight,Gracie

 

[Flowersoul]

Sounds Greek to her. Did me a long time ago, too! Still get confused with the jargon of watts/amps, etc.

me too
Call the vendor that you gonna buy the mod from and ask them which batteries you need for it and just get them at the same time honey. They will be more then happy to help you out

 

[FranC]

Ah ha. I see it all clearly now............

 

[Flowersoul]

I didn't say that I was leaving, just said goodnight to........oooh, I forget now!

But, since it is very near that time, and my hands ache a bit from the gardening I did today, I will say 'goodnight' now.

 

[tiburonfirst]

night, gracie!

 

[tiburonfirst]

ask them which batteries you need for it

ahem, no! the lgs are excellent and once obg gets back he can tell kat if that mod will take flat tops

 

[SilverBear]

They will be more then happy to help you out

... and take your $$$.

 

[AG51]

ahem, no! the lgs are excellent and once obg gets back he can tell kat if that mod will take flat tops

... and take your $$$.

just givin her a choice ub a solution is all

 

[oldbikeguy]

Not you too........

Yep They all got the bad guy this time at the same time

 

[CES]

HEY @daleron !!! ... Do you watch the original "CSI" series? and

(I wonder how far along @CES is with NCIS ... has Gibbs quit yet?)

Not even close...only partway through season two. Thirteen to go?

Good evening y'all

 

[tiburonfirst]

... and take your $$$.

probably!

kat, i see no reason why that mod won't take a flat top - i believe the provari is the only one that won't for safety. if you should end up with them make sure you mark the batteries in such a way that you cannot confuse the positive and negative ends!
