Hi,
I recently built a small portable undisclosed device that primarily uses two power hungry components, a motor, and an inverter, the motor is rated at 3-12v, it operates fine so long as it gets enough current, the inverter i have, i know requires roughly 5v at 2A to run at full capacity.
My problem is i need to run both simultaneously and my NiMH batteries, although supplying sufficient power for both individually, cant handle both at the same time.
If i change over my 6 1.5V NiMH batteries with 8 1.2v NiCads, although the overall capacity is cut by 60%, will it supply ample power to both components?
Also, im thinking of getting these batteries **broken link removed**
It seems all NiCads are being advertised this way, as solar lamp batteries, does this matter? or are they all the same anyway?
Thanks
