    Reverse polarity protection

    Thanks alot everone, got some great ideas there im leaning towards the MOSFET solution(great current capability, low voltage drop)

    Reverse polarity protection

    Thanks for the ideas, I like the idea behide the Mosfet polarity protect, only problems i see with it are the internal diode would shortcircut the whole thing but im sure theres a way to fix that The Relay option sounds pretty good exept id like to keep this relativly small, but maybe il find a...

    Reverse polarity protection

    Well basicly what im looking for is a way on protecting a circut from a reverse battery condition. I have considered several common solutions such as: -Diode (.7 Voltage drop for Silicon Diodes is to high,germanium voltage drop still not ideal) -Fuse (only works once) What i am looking for...
