I'm not one to get prematurely excited...but can someone explain this

[Cap-Z-ro]

I didn't bother to check the caps on the first run...I had stripped them from various components.

Before assembling my 2nd motor battery charger I did short out the caps first...and it still worked.

Trans charger battery now reads 8.21 vdc rising very slowly...same for the trans battery reading 7.14.

The motor isn't supposed to turn...it just sits there while the battery charges for some reason unknown to me.

Okay i redid mine with a 9 volt that other battery was from a very old portable phone from 10 years ago lol

Starting with 8.81 volts from a 9volt battery. the caps im using are from an old PC power suply. 470uf 200V

I made mention of that early on...you must have skipped the early stuff.

My next objective is to run the motor at the same time.

Thats it for me for the nite...good luck with yours.

8.82! then drops back down to 8.81 lol i think the cap size im using may effect it. it seems to be doing something but vvvvvvvvvvvvvvvvery slowly. steping it up with 2 9 volts in series with a total of 17.52v @12:24 AM. Shouldnt it be charging up the caps though? i thought that was the purpose of them. Ill wait for an hour and come back see if its over a certain voltage and take the caps off see what the batteries give me.


::edit:: okay i steped it up again and added another 9 volt battery for a total of 3 first reading was 20.91volts @12:32 am its now 12:37 and reading 21.08 volts
