This causes the cells in the battery to reverse polarity, permanently damaging them. This condition can easily result in a catastrophic battery failure with a battery acid steam explosion the reversed battery due to the intense heat from reverse charging. Use one less module than the number of batteries. Zivan Smoother Bill Dube's Review Charger type equalizers add additional charging current to low batteries. Their potential applications are endless, and they will probably be the chips that eventually go into everything from toasters to alarm clocks to ham radios.
PICs represent a new paradigm in automation and micro control.
Our MooRocco telemetry system utilizes multiple remote PICs to gather data from everything from the batteries to the brakes. These remote BABY PICs all report via fiber optics to a BOSS PIC, which will format the data for transmission via amateur packet radio. It checks the voltage across the battery and the temperatures of the two leads. That way if your battery terminal is a little bit loose and it starts to heat up, we can see that. They have heard of terminals getting very hot and causing problems, so they figure their system can warn them long before a loose terminal overheats and starts a fire.
