Protect your DS ESR or LOPT kit! (Bob Parker)
I've just finished testing a device that protects the two kits up to
350VDC @ 200MA. nice sparks! All you need to get is a MOV - I'm using the Panasonic ERZ-V07D220 wich is rated at 22V and 250A - soldered directly to the lugs on the banana jacks. I did not want to clip under 20V, so I can still use the ESR meter to check the condition of rechargable batteries. If you weren't aware, the DS (Bob Parker design!) ESR kit K-7214 will also check the ESR of batteries. I have a brief write up on http://www.flippers.com/esrkthnt.html#battery John :-#)# -- (Please post followups or tech enquires to the newsgroup) John's Jukes Ltd. 2343 Main St., Vancouver, BC, Canada V5T 3C9 Call (604)872-5757 or Fax 872-2010 (Pinballs, Jukes, Video Games) www.flippers.com "Old pinballers never die, they just flip out." |

John;
I think there is no reason for it to even tolerate 20 volts. It does not need any voltage higher than its test signal. Setup to test current or voltage, doesn't matter. If you want to test ESR on charged batteries, you can capacitively isolate it with a large electrolytic. BTW, what kind of ESR readings should one expect from a given battery ? Is it like a go/nogo thing, or are you trying to match these batteries in series or something like that ? You have piqued my curiousity. JURB |
