We have a battery powerd charger,model mag.12 u.o.,and like to now if it can be changed over to be an electric

P/V=A

The panel is rated 6 watts at 12 volts 12 / 6 = 0.5 Amps

So in full sun the panel "should" produce 1/2 Amp at 12 Volts.

What type of 12V bulb and what is its current rating?

• A 6 Volt charger will charge a 12 Volt battery, it will just take twice the time to get the 12 Volt battery to full charge as a 12 Volt charger would take. V*I=W. It will take up to 36 hours to get a full charge from near dead but it will work just fine.

• If you have any comments please feel free to leave them here.
• Hope this helps and thank you for using FixYa.

BATTERY CHARGER IS LOW QUALITY PLEASE CHANGE THE CHARGER

Hi
I had one about 15 years ago and it was installed in the car.
The click in base used to charge it has a metal base which can be screwed into place in the vehicle.
The base take's 12 volts from your mains charger, If you still have the full kit supplied with the torch you will have got a lead for connecting the base up to the 12 volt supply.
If you do not have the lead you will have to find a lead with the same connection on the end as the mains one.
You will need to use an in-line car fuse holder with a fuse of 6 amp's size to protect the lead and charger. Observe the polarity of the lead coming from the mains charger and duplicate it with the lead in the car. (reversed polarity will prevent the charger from working.)
In my case I used the cigarette charger supply in the car to power it. (the load is very small)

The charger which comes with the BPR40 is a rapid charger. (The book doesn't indicate if it is a 90 min. or 3 hour charger.) None-the-less, your battery is fine. When your charger is displaying green it will continue to trickle (slow) charge the battery to keep it topped off, so to speak. The first 3 charge cycles you should leave the battery on the charger the full recommended time. On most Motorola radios it is 10-12 hours. This will assure your battery is charged to full capacity and initiated properly. In most cases, your traditional charging of the radio should be overnight. When you go to bed, put the radio to bed on the charger.

FYI: All batteries come from the factory with some charge in them. It is a small test charge to assure the battery's funcationality.

If for some reason after the first week or so, you think your battery or charger is not functioning properly, contact the dealer where you purchased the unit. They can replace it under warranty.

Best regards.

check the output voltage on the power transformer that plugs into the wall. It should be about 7.5v and if that is what it says the it will be defective if the output is actually 12.dc. But if that is what isays it should be then you need to make sure that it is the right power supply.

Charge it for at least 12 hrs before using and run it down every so often to get a complete charge out of it and longer battery life.

If the charge lite comes on when charging it means your transformer is still good. Replace the battery.

If you get no charge light transformer is bad, if this is the case (personally) i would replace the charger & battery for that peace of mind.

Somewhere in the flashlight their is a short, check everything from bottom to top.

I have a regular AA Mag light that had industrial strength batteries which corroded.I did get them out but the bulb holder on the light broke.(The main bulb holder where the twist on switch is.)
