Charging batteries from batteries

[SkyWatcher123]

Hi dandman, thanks for sharing your tests.
Could you explain what the little difference in charging is.

Also, i assume the two 12 volt charging batteries in parallel and the input 12 volt battery is in parallel with the two charging batteries.
Or are you using some kind of boost charger in between them.

Also, have you load tested in anyway the single 12 volt input battery to see if it can still carry a decent load or could it be some surface charge making it appear as if it has not lost much capacity, thanks.
peace love light

Yo skywatcher. I have only tested the discharge rate of the single battery. it discharges at the same rate under the same load over the same amount of time as it did before the recharging. As mentioned previously, I am introducing resistance while charging. There appears to be no degradation to the single battery's ability to carry the same load as it did previously. I believe, that I may be deliberately

No for the love of putunia's,
of course transfers are not lossless

Are you saying that you charge batteries by hooking them in parallel?

If so I have seen this effect before in capacitors. One capacitor has more charge than the other capacitor and hooking them up in parallel, positive to positive and negative to negative the capacitors will charge to a higher voltage than what the original capacitor had.

Hi, It's not simply hooking them up in parallel. I believe Im forcing energy to back up in the charging batteries. The losses are the value of the resistance I mentioned earlier instead of the value of the energy discharged.
