Car Voltage Stabilizer
Hi,
I got my hands on a unit of car voltage stabilizer. This thing is suppose to regulate the 12V fluctations when the engine is running. I have opend up the unit to see the circuitry. Basically there are about 10pcs of capcitors with capcitance values ranging from 1000uF to 470uF. There is an LM324N op amp IC and a poly LED which acts as an voltage level indicator which different colour of light. Does anybody have or know where on internet I am able to view the schematics in order to analyse its effectiveness? Thanks, ch |

Some instruments operating on the hot wire principle so they react slowly - like fuel gauges - need a stabilised voltage supply. -- *A clear conscience is usually the sign of a bad memory * Dave Plowman London SW To e-mail, change noise into sound. |

Anyway I am not able to verify that as I have not yet install it. |

If the largest cap is 1000µF it'll not have much effect on the average car radio, voltage wise. -- *If one synchronized swimmer drowns, do the rest have to drown too?

Anyway I am not able to verify that as I have not yet install it. I have no idea what you have. |
