Battery

[Al Skierkiewicz]

Mike,
In reality the rule of thumb is 2 feet of #6 will drop 0.1 volt at 100 amps. Stall current on a CIM is 133 amps. Four CIMs pushing against the player station, for example, (stalled) will drop 0.5 volts before calculating in the drop across the internal resistance of the battery or considering a battery that is no longer at full charge. Remember that is all the wire, black and red, in the path.

Gary,
Don't you carry and electron cleanup kit? We do.

Polyester picks up electrons. (Low on the Triboelectric Series)

Are you asking if I can pick up electrons? I'm positive.

I happen to think Gary is pretty well grounded. You too, Al.
