Brenchie's Lab

Big Thanks to Divi Aruba Careers for supporting the Maker Space at University of Aruba with an AC. Now you can make something in a cooler space!

Hackathon! Trying to recharge our solar battery with a couple of power supplies, we put them in series and set the voltage in steps to slowly bring it up closer to 48V so that our inverter will charge it. One is maxed out, the other is set to 2A charging current, which goes down as the battery charges to the set voltage. Thanks to S cubed for the voice note instructions!
