I tired to read some older posts so as not to make a new thread that had already been covered, but couldn't find one that I could actually understand....
first off, I can get a few 12v 7ah batts for free from a friend, so Im trying to go with that for now (no spending required).
So I have some specific questions:
1) If I have a 12v 7ha SLA battery, in theory, shouldn't I be able to run a 1 amp circuit (using anything less then 12v's) for up to 7 hours, at which point the voltage would be 0v and need to be recharged - If this is the case, how can I get 7 Amp Hours out of it if its not allowed to drop below 10.8 volts ? (I might have asked something really dumb just then, but I'm prepared to be mocked if need be)
2) can I put two 12v 7ha SLA batteries together to get 12v 14ha? or will I just get 24v 7ah?
3) Lots of solar panels out there, lots of batteries and lots of solar regulators... so what kind of panel to suits what kind of regulator to trickle charge a 12v 7ah SLA battery? (or what do I need to charge 2 or 3 of the same batteries, as above)? - would like to learn the concept, not just be pointed to a particular product, if you know what I mean....?
Thanks to all in advance
