AC Inverter -
An electrical circuit which generates a sine-wave output (regulated and without breaks) using the DC current supplied by the rectifier-charger or the battery. The primary elements of the inverter are the DC/AC converter, a regulation system and an output filter.
Acid -
A proton donor. A compound containing hydrogen which dissociates in aqueous solution producing positively charged hydrogen ions (H+). An acidic solution has a pH less than 7.0
Alkaline battery -
A battery which uses an aqueous alkaline solution for its electrolyte.
Ambient temperature -
The average temperature surrounding the battery, typically
Ampere (Amp) -
The unit of current flow equal to one coulomb per second.
Ampere hours (Ah) -
The unit of measure used for comparing the capacity or energy content of a batteries with the same output voltage. For automotive (Lead Acid) batteries the SAE defines the Amphour capacity as the current delivered for a period of 20 hours until the cell voltage drops to 1.75 V.
