Sealed Lead batteries
Hi folks
I plan to use two Yuasa NPO.8-12 12v 0.8Ah gelcells for portable radio amateur rig.. I will use them in France where power is 50 Hz. I see that chargers available here in Canada always specify 60 Hz. So, do I have to expect some problems? Thanks Pierre |

Better find a charger that works on both because on 50 cps you need more
iron in conventional charger but a switcher will probably be OK since the first thing it'll do is conver the ac to dc. -- 73 Hank WD5JFR "Pierre Desjardins" wrote in message ...

He didn't mention how fast he wanted to charge the batteries. Many older
camcorder chargers were 12 volt and have universal inputs. Would be easy to modify and most thrift stores have them. Al WB7NXB "Henry Kolesnik" wrote in message . com...

Puisque que ce n'est pas de la puissance mais le cycle de phase du courant dans les lignes d'alimentation. Ce qui est important c'est la tension en entré du chargeur!!! - habituellement en France tu as une alimentation en 220V biphasé - ICI au Quebec on a une alimentation domestique en 120V monophasé et une alimentation de puissance pour les chauffages ou certain appareils comme la secheuse a linge en 240V biphasé Alors avec un petit peu d'imagination, un tournevis et deux ou trois morceaux tu peu brancher ton chargeur ICI sans risque pour tes batterie juste surveille le chargeur pour qu'il ne chauffe pas trop. !!!! 73 VA2SCH Daniel |
