Two 80 watt panels parallel supplying the two regulators which then charge the 2 batteries separately .The idea I am working with is not to use the two batteries in parallel in case one goes flat and takes the second out but to either with the first part to reduce the current draw on The batteries by separating the TX and rx power sources or to have a main and backup battery incase the main goes flat Thank You, Ian Wells, Kerinvale Comaudio, 361 Camboon Road.Biloela.4715 Phone 0749922574 or 0409159932 www.kerinvalecomaudio.com.au -------Original Message------- From: skipp025 Date: 2/08/2008 12:18:39 AM To: [email protected] Subject: [Repeater-Builder] Re: Dual battery system Hi Ian,
The first questions I would want to ask you are ... Are you supplying the charging energy to each charge controller from the same or different solar arrays? Why the two solar chargers versus one solar charger? Is your array made of mixed type/capacity panels? skipp > "Kerincom" <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> wrote: > > Hi guys .I am wondering if anyone knows of good pages on dual batteries > systems and comments on which of following questions is better > > I am wondering if having two batteries .one for the receiver and one for the > TX each with its own solar regulator or > A system where two batteries are charged by two separate regulators and the > TX and rx run off one battery and when extended no solar period happens the > repeater is switched to the second battery when the main drains below 10 or > 11v and returned to the main when it charges back up > > Thank You, > Ian Wells, > Kerinvale Comaudio, > 361 Camboon Road.Biloela.4715 > Phone 0749922574 or 0409159932 > www.kerinvalecomaudio.com.au >
