How to Identify and Resolve Common Issues ?
We offer a diverse range of insights on identifying and resolving common problems in sports. Our sources encompass academic articles, blog posts, and personal essays shared by seasoned athletes. :
A 12v battery is a 12 volt battery, you can`t use it at 6v. It doesn`t work that way. Each of the 3 cells in a 6v battery produces a bit over 2 volts, just like each of the 6 cells in a 12v battery produces a bit over 2 volts. Because that`s what a lead-acid battery cell does.
Can you jump start a 6 volt battery with a 12 volt battery? Yes you can. Just don`t put a 12v battery in a 6 volt car and expect everything to run as normal, you will fry just about everything in it.
Makeup and How They Work. A battery is full of cells with chemicals that transfer ions back and forth to create electricity. Each cell in a deep-cycle battery can produce about 2 volts. A 6V battery has 3 cells, making a total of 6 volts, and a 12V battery has 6 cells, making a total of 12 volts!
It is never recommended to use a 12V power supply on 6V. This will deplete your battery and result in a severe thermal runaway situation. Some individuals use a 12V charger to jump-start their 6V battery, however, it is never a good idea to try to fully charge your 6V battery with a 12V charger as well.
The short answer is no. If the car is designed for a 6V battery, use of a 12V battery will destroy the motor.
6-Volt Pros:
They have a longer lifespan. Because they have half the number of plates in their cells, 6V batteries weigh less. When wired in series, you can double the number of volts with smaller, lighter batteries in your battery compartment. 6V batteries typically have larger Ah capacities.
A fully charged car battery should have a voltage of around 12.6 volts. When the battery voltage drops below 12 volts, there is a possibility that it won`t have enough power to start the car. It is recommended to have a battery with a voltage of at least 12.4 volts to ensure a reliable start.
If you were to run a 12v motor off a 24v battery the stall current could then be excessive if it weren`t limited by the controller. Therefore, provided you chose a controller suitable for the motor you use, you can usually run a motor 12v motor from a 24v battery with no effect except that full speed is doubled.
How can I tell a 6 volt battery from a 12 volt battery by just looking at it? In general, read the label on the battery. It will likely tell you. This works for all types of battery, unless there is no label.
Generally speaking, the higher the battery voltage, the faster a kid`s ride-on car can go. A 6v car typically has a maximum speed of 2-3mph, while a 12v vehicle can reach speeds of up to 5-6mph.
12V batteries are common types of batteries that are used in powering boats, cars, RVs and other forms of automobiles. Some 12V batteries are also used alongside generators to generate electricity and power up buildings.
You cannot use a 12V power supply on a 5V. It will cause the device to draw more current than it is designed for and will likely burn out, causing fire hazards and explosions. In other words, if the applied voltage is more than the maximum rated voltage then the device will undoubtedly fail due to overvoltage.
Can You Use Regular Car Batteries in a Golf Cart? The short answer is yes. Standard car batteries are 12-volts, and you could connect three or four of them in series to provide the required 36 or 48 volts to your golf cart motor. However, the design of car batteries provides a huge surge of current for short periods.

Yes, that was done years back on some slow starting cars & trucks like Chryslers, and farmers around here did it on the old flatheads. You need to adjust the voltage regulator or have it done by an auto electric shop.
A 12 volt coil designed to work with an external resistor should work good on 6 volts but a coil wound for 12 volts or with an internal resistor for 12 volts will give a weak spark on 6 volts.

My swimming pool. I have just had my fifth IC 40 Intellichlor chlorine generator installed in 4 years at a cost of over $900 today. Each one has worked for no more than 8 months. The first three were replaces under three year warranty, the fourth by a factory rep and I bought the fifth today. The first three all failed with Flow Chk PCB error message. The fourth just stopped working on Sunday, no power or lights. A local Pentair warranty person, whom I paid a Service Call, unplugged the unit, opened the small power center cover, showed me the green light indicating that there was power, plugged in a new IC 40 which worked immediately (as did the other four). I asked if I should replace the power center and he said that it’s basically just a transformer and is working fine. We do get occasional power blips that make the clocks on microwaves, etc blink, but I thought that the power center essentially isolates the cell from these. I do have a Florida Power and Light surge protector on the electrical box that brings power into the house. I have now talked to the pool builder, two Pentair warranty repairmen and one factory rep. I am at a loss. They all tell me they have no idea why these units fail after less than a year. This last IC 40 was installed 3/24/2010, version 2.0 and now failed in less than 5 months. Should I replace the power center that the IC 40 plugs into. Any other suggestions. I have been told that this is the best chlorinator. I don’t want to keep replacing units. By the way, each unit had been spotless inside. I keep the water chemicals and salt levels at ideal levels. The units have never worked long enough to get dirty inside. The power center is connected to an Intellitouch control system outside with an indoor control panel. Last time I called Pentair North Carolina and got some smart alec tech person that had no suggestions. Please Help if you can.
ANSWER : I’ve had the same experiance. On my fifth one as well. Fail every year. No idea why.

I have purchased three 750-watt power inverters in the last three weeks. They have all failed to work on the second or third use. The first two were the same brand. I replaced an old one that ran for several years. I am using it to run a 4.7 amp 120-volt vacuum cleaner motor that pumps up my air dock. I have it connected directly with marine cable to one of the boat batteries. The battery outputs about 12.8 volts DC. The fuses don?t blow, just No Output. I am using a three-wire 120-volt extension cord and am, wired neutral, hot and ground to the AC motor vial an on/off switch. The motor works fine when I run house power with an extension cord from the dock next to me. Could I be, just unlucky with new inverters and need to buy a forth one?
ANSWER : The problem may be that the inverter is undersized for the load. Is the 4.7 Amp rating the motor peak draw or the nominal one. What I mean is that it takes many times more power to start start the motor than when the motor is running. Typically it is 3 to 7 times more amps to start the motor than when it is running. It could be that starting the vacumm cleaner is stressing the inverter and it is causing it to fail prematurely. If you can find out the locked rotor current draw of the motor, the that would be the mininum size of the inverter.
Also, the type of inverter will make a difference on how the motor operates. A modified sine wave will make the motor run hotter than a pure sine wave inverter. Hope this helps.
I would like to hook up a 12 volt battery to the trailer. In the cupboard below the propane stove is a plug with white, black and orange wire to it.
In the AC power converter cupboard I have a plug with a black and orange wire. How do I hook up the battery so that it charges and runs the fridge while I’m driving, and lets me use the lights with the fridge on propane while I’m camping?
ANSWER : You haven’t told us what trailer you have, what DC-AC converter you have, it the wire is original or aftermarket and what gage it is.
Because of that you must first identify the wires. You will need a multimeter for that. Start by finding if your trailer has a negative wire or is using the chassis as the ground. For that disconnect the battery from the truck (make sure you have the radio code handy) then measure the resistance between the 3 wires and the body of the truck – you will find the ground wire when the resistance will be close to 0. Reconnect the battery and measure the voltage between the ground wire and the other 2 – the one with 12v on it is the power one and the other goes to the power input of the converter. Check that by removing the converter and looking where they are plugged – if you have any doubts that they are not the wires from the cupboard just check their continuity.All of this is a 5 minute job. Once you know the wires just connect the ground on to the minus and the power and the converter ones to the plus.
