Re: [Repeater-Builder] Smart Batt Charger - not quiet off topic

2010-08-27 Thread Gordon Cooper
I use a Solar Panel controller built from a kit by Otley Electronics
in Australia. Has been going two years without problems. Battery
voltage is sensed continually and cut-off point adjustable. Battery
then cycles on/off, switching by a MosFet and hysteresis can be
altered.

How much did this unit cost roughly, and do you have the URl of the company
or were the parts available here

  Sorry Marcus I mis-spelt their name, it is Oatley.
www.oatleyelectronics.com.au. Cost about $18AU
bare and $24AU with a waterproof box. I purchased
directly from them. The only thing I found wrong was a
couple of mistakes in their technical documentation -
so I rewrote part of it for them.
