Gabby asked: We have put a charger on the car and the charge holds while the car is off. But when driving the car the battery drains in less than an hour. The alternator has been tested and shows to be good. The new battery has been tested and shows to be good. The head connectors for the battery have been changed. The problem is still occurring. What could the problem be?

calories asked: The battery on my generator just went dead so I hooked the battery charger onto it. I’m not sure if the battery is fully charged yet. Will the generator charge the battery up the rest of the way if I have enough charge to get the engine started?? I didn’t know if the generator worked similarly to a car charging the battery with the alternator. Thanks for your help!!

Marcus asked: I’d like to install a 12v car battery as a backup in my attic for my garage door opener and driveway flood lights. What safety issues should I be concerned about? is there a better battery option to use? I’m guessing hydrogen leaking into my attic is dangerous and possible, is this a problem or would it disperse enough to be harmless?

pn_renju asked:
I have an old UPS rated around 500VA. It uses a 12V 7.5Ah sealed lead acid battery.? I have a 12V 250Ah car battery also. Can I replace my UPS battery with car battery. I’ve heared that it may cause come problem with the charger. If I can not replace the battery can I use the car battery by charging externally?. This is for using the same as an inverter at my home(Any explanation, details, links or schematics wolud be appreciated).

sableisland asked:
I was wondering if you can do this safely, because I think that it could be useful as a small backup power supply. Would this work with any other batteries? Thanks.

I’m thinking I can buy parts at radioshack and just connect the cigarette lighter to a spare battery in the back. Not sure how the fuses will work or if I need a resistor maybe.
