Electrical plans #9

Open TheVetter opened 7 years ago

We have a couple of wishes for the electrical on the snowplow.

  1. Make a electrical diagram documenting signal and power lines and connections.
  2. Add some power connectors to easily disconnect the batteries from the robot for recharging
  3. Get a 24 volt charger to charge the 2 sets of 12v battieries in parallel at once.
  4. Rewire to clean up electrical connections and label wires.

@Zob314 is working on the electrical diagram and I am working with Dr. Selekwa to order the charger and connectors.

I could be forgetting something so please comment and add ideas and wishes for our electrical.

I think we should not get the power connector and the crimper.

I think we should get terminal connector because we can use one that comes with the charger and leave it connected to the 12v battery and buy another connector for the 24v set. so all we have to do for charging is plug a 12v or 24v cable in to the charger depending on which we needed to charge.
