Battery Chargers

Posted by Hugh MacKay on March 21, 2003 at 05:40:48 from (216.208.58.168):

A few weeks back on one of my tractor parts missions I landed home with a battery charger. I have never had one of these before, and as such know little about them or what can be achived with them. To start with I do not have a manual. This unit stands about 18" high, about 12" square, with wheels and a handle to push it with. The dial on timer was missing. I asked my wife if she had any knobs around off old appliances, to which she pulled the oven knob off her range, said get me a new one of these, and you can have this one. It fit perfect. The dial for voltage change had stem sheared off, I was able to get a new one of these at local auto parts store, I will go back as it was not even his brand.

The unit has an orange light for polarity check, a red light for charge indicator, an ampmeter. Voltage switch has 5 positions; off, 6 volt lo, 6 volt hi and 12 volt lo, 12 volt med and 12 volt hi or boost. I can turn timer up and it ticks back in appropriate time. The out put cables are only slightly smaller than 1 guage cables on my 6 volt SA. I have an old 6 volt battery, not much good anymore, when I hook it up it draws about 18 amps. Hooked a volt meter to this and on 6 lo it put out 8 volts, 6hi & 12lo 11 volts, 12 med 12 volts and 12 hi or boost 15 volts. Is this unit good? What kinds of functions can I do with it? What are functions of timer? Can I trickle charge with this unit? This and any other pertinant information would be much appreciated.

Today's Featured Article - Box Plow Blues - by Tom Schwarz. One of the first implements most tractor owners obtain is the box plow. For very little money, this piece of equipment promises to plow and flatten any hill or vale on your ranch road or farm. At least that's what I thought! As simple as a box plow appears, it can be rather challenging to make work correctly. In our sandy soils of Florida, traction is king. You can never have wide enough tires or heavy enough weights to get all the traction you want … unless you own a monster tractor. U ... [Read Article]
