    Also if your aim was garden light. I think a bit of diffusing layer from say a TV backlight inside of that clear plastic would help spread the light out more. I'll see if I can find one of those boxes. Seems handy. I would of put the panel inside of it

    Thank you for mentioning the diode in the IC. That was my main problem when I first found a broken garden light on the side of the road. Since I just want them to charge my nimh cells. Is there a problem leaving the load disconnected? I just have it floating on the recent garden panel I found. It has a 5252F IC which is pretty similar.

    Nice to see them open, i learned about that only a year ago or so; I could not find DC ones so been using 2 AC breakers,25 Amp each, for a year now on my 60 VDC solar system, up to 32 Amps; i switch them off manually, only, sometimes several times a day ; it's impossible for the current to go over 32 amps, that is the MAX, so it's not expected that they trip on their own, ever, that is not why they are there; they are there because i need to manually disconect them ( solar panels from the MPPT/batteries ) when i need to adjust the MPPT voltages; this seldom happens; i expected them to not last, but they still work perfectly; cost me 2 or 3 euros each; i use 2 of them, 25A each, in parallel; amazingly they never burned and still worl fine; they are in a place that if they start smoking, or on fire, it does not matter, nothing to burn nearby; i would not do it, otherwise.

  • @StrixTechnica
    @StrixTechnica 2 месяца назад

    1:24 The bad news is that those cutouts, at the right frequency act as very good "slot" antennas! Even when not resonant, the shielding effect of a metal box relies on fairly complete closure. Any hole, including an unwelded seam, that is about λ/4 or larger will conduct noise to the outside surface of the box, where it will radiate. 3:16 Filters are really some combination of inductors and capacitors. Each capacitor has some amount of parasitic inductance, particularly those with wire legs (as opposed to surface mount), past which it ceases to be a useful filter. There is always a frequency at which a particular component is resonant. Wires also present a normal resistance, too, and especially electrolytic capacitors of the sort you used tend to have a maximum ripple current. So although capacitors can work, an LC filtering network needs to be designed with all that in mind. 5:09 ah yes, the bane of every audio engineer's life. That cable is for unbalanced audio which suffers from several different types of noise. One is entirely conducted (ground loops) where especially mains AC noise currents in the shield/ground appears as noise relative to the signal, which the input stage faithfully picks up and reproduces. This situation is most likely to be a problem of common-mode noise on the cable (ie, noise currents on both conductors going the same direction). The right sort of ferrite ring can help with that, too. (And note that choking impedance is proportional to the _square_ of the number of turns.) For this reason, professional audio uses balance (XLR) audio cables where possible. These still pick up common-mode noise currents, but the complementary wire picks up the same amount of noise as the true wire, which the audio input stage cancels out by subtracting the signal on the complementary (aka 'cold') wire from the true ('hot') wire. The result is clean audio, but it doesn't mean the noise isn't there. In this case, the inverter is still very much to blame.
