    Battery charger

    So if I lower the voltage to about 10v it will still be fine to charge a 12v battery? Or should I just put in a voltage regulator to keep the voltage low?

    Battery charger

    Hi At work I am curntly building a battery charger. I took a 220v to 10v transformer and took out the secondary windings because I wanted to make it a 12v, I rewinded it with 2.5mm flexible cable untill I got my 12v. The transformer works well untill I connect it to the battery, the current...
