Frequently Asked Questions

Can I hook an Optima up in parallel with my other battery?

OPTIMA Batteries Frequently Asked Questions!
No, when hooking batteries together in parallel they should be of identical make, model, and of similar age.

What is a gel cell battery? How does the Optima battery compare?

A gel battery is typically a modification of a conventional lead-acid automotive or marine battery. A gelling agent is added to the electrolyte to reduce movement inside the battery case. Optima Deep-Cycle batteries are able to deliver and receive higher amperages than gel cell batteries, due to the much higher internal resistance of gel batteries. Most gel batteries cannot handle engine starting duties, but Optima Deep-Cycle batteries excel in such applications. See similar questions...

How to connect a battery in Parallel?

FAQ about Batteries
The positive terminal of the first battery is connected to the positive terminal of the second battery. The negative terminal of the first battery is connected to the negative terminal of the second battery. The voltage of the batteries when connected in parallel remains the same as one battery, and the AH are added together, i.e., two 12 volt, 5 AH (amp hours) batteries hooked in parallel would equal 12 volts at 10 AH.

Can I use a parallel switch to hook up the scanner?

KODAK:FAQ:KODAK PhotoDoc Color Scanner
Yes, but use a switch box that switches all 25 signal lines. Look for a switch box that states "Premium Data Switch." See similar questions...

When should I use a Deep Cycle OPTIMA as a Starting battery?

quot;Deep Cycle" batteries are designed for applications that require deep, repetitive amperage drain, like trolling motors, golf carts, and electric wheelchairs, or RV house power sources. However, there are other applications, called "Heavy Cycling" or "High Cycling", when a Deep Cycle OPTIMA can successfully replace a starting battery to provide longer life and better performance.

Why does the Optima battery last longer than conventional batteries?

Superior retention of active paste material. The Spiralcell construction immobilises the plates, preventing the active paste from working loose, which can cause plate-to-plate shorting in conventional batteries. The lead-tin alloy in the Optima battery contains higher-purity lead than conventional batteries, reducing internal battery corrosion. The Optima battery's sealed design prevents loss of water which can lead to plate dry-out and failure. See similar questions...

Can I use the internal and an external battery in parallel ?

service_faqs_rtus.html
Unfortunately not. When connecting an external battery the internal one needs to be disconnected. See also previous FAQ. NOTE: The electronics of the RTU's integrated battery charger can only provide a maximum charging current of up to 0.9Amps. Since batteries should be charged with at least 1/10 of their capacity, the maximum capacity of an external battery should thus not exceed 9Ah. See similar questions...

Can I use a parallel switch to hook up the film drive?

Use only a switch box that switches all 25 signals in the parallel cable. Look for switch boxes like Premium Data Switch. See similar questions...

What about parallel machines?

Basic Questions
Machines with many processors are much faster than single processors can be. Parallelism itself presents no advantages, and parallel machines are somewhat awkward to program. When extreme speed is required, it is necessary to face this awkwardness. See similar questions...

Can I use the internal and an external battery in parallel mode ?

service_faqs_rtus.html
NOTE: The internal battery charger electronic could only handle up 0.9A Batteries should be charged at least with 1/10 or theire capacity, maximum external battery capacity, using the internal chaging controller could only be max 9Ah. No, the A733GSM is a GSM data connection, a point to point connection from the A840 via internal or external modem to the A733GSM. See similar questions...

Can I connect several turbines in parallel to one large battery bank to get much higher powers ?

FUTURENERGY
Yes, as long as you use one Charge Controller and Dump Load for each turbine you connect together. You should also ensure that your battery bank capacity is greater than 200Ah per turbine, so if you intend to connect 5 of our FE1024 turbines to one 24V battery bank, you will require 5 Charge Controllers, 5 Dump Loads and a battery bank with a capacity of at least 1000Ah @ 24V. See similar questions...

What if a hook tears out?

Suspension FAQ
Hooks rarely tear out BUT in the event that one does or if the skin is torn, it is best to have a suture kit on hand to sew the wound shut. See similar questions...

How do I hook it up?

BOSE INDIA
The cables from the cubes terminate at the back of the bass module - the right speaker wires in the slot marked right & left speaker wires in the slot marked left. Another set of wires need to run from the audio in of the bass module to the audio out of the amplifier. See similar questions...

Can I hook up more than one computer?

myPISD.net
Yes, but the bandwidth will be shared among all of the active connections. Also, Verizon, SBC, and Comcast do not provide technical support for networks. If you choose to set up a network, you need to have the appropriate network systems in place. Please note that families subscribing to myPISD.net services are limited to two concurrent connections.
