    Drivers/ regulator input voltage current effects on output quantity

    It was my belief that the driver characteristics made the output current constant(within reason) no matter what the input current/voltage was. Recently having bought a driver that was rated at 5 to 35 volts and having tried it the output was Far beneath what was expected, this was sort of...

    So we dont get true ions !

    I see Mario. Liion are a good battery for discharge rate, charge holding, memory effect etc, i dont really see much more of a drain problem as compared to NIMH as drain between 3 aaa nimh is acceptable for most applications, I know there are higher drain occurences but for most applications they...

    So we dont get true ions !

    Well thanks for all the input. I didnt really think the discharge rate of the lithium thionylchloride was so low. But from a safety point Of view is cobalt any less dangerous or toxic than lithium ? A d cell nimh is 170g and has 11wh, a lion battery is roughly half the weight and has 7.5 wh...

    Help regarding driver efficiency calculations

    I put a thread asking for driver reccomendations a while ago to no sucess. What do you think to these ? http://m.ebay.com/itm/3w-Constant-Current-Power-LED-driver-Input-3-6v-Output-700mA-with-2pcs-7135-IC-/111855113500?nav=SEARCH These look like you select your resistors yourself And...

    Help regarding driver efficiency calculations

    Yep its got the coil, (-nduction coil)which i thought was needed to convert using the switching methOd. Its got the chip on it for the switching too. It is a buck by name. I did wonder whether the metre was reading peak current and voltage on the way in ? Rather than the average. Yep the sums...

    Help regarding driver efficiency calculations

    Could some one check these calculations, as Ive bought yet another driver, and apparently its doing a resistor job and dissipating the surplus current. Pre driver - 3.69v and 150ma giving 55.4 watts Led side - 2.77v and 143ma giving 39.6 watts Efficiency of 71 percent, which is basically...

    Quality 18650 External Battery Bank ?

    well this tomo one needs initialising from a wall charger if all the batteries are taken/fall out. ive not tried this one http://www.amazon.com/dp/B00IM3NZ86/?tag=cpf0b6-20 this one you can short badly, red and melted terminals, again not tried but its on the reviews ive read. it looked the...

    Quality 18650 External Battery Bank ?

    I have seen the little charger boards, but as for the moulding for the case, wiring sockets and 2 diodes a battery it would be quite amaturish. I suppose i could canibalise and modify one i buy, but i was hopeing to just get one ready made. I am quite suprised i cant find one by nitecore actually

    Quality 18650 External Battery Bank ?

    oDonees anyone know of an 18650 external battery bank/charger that's well built and comes with reverse polarity/low high volt protection etc. I cannot find one, all i can find is these on amazon. http://www.amazon.com/gp/aw/s/ref=is_s?k=18650+battery+bank Theyre either fragile or not...
