jimmyb79 Posted August 29, 2014 Report Share Posted August 29, 2014 Hi all, is there any reason why a deben 12v lithium battery couldn't work with a flapper or magnet? Clearly I'd have to add the appropriate connectors but before I go cutting wires, I thought I'd ask! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
wymberley Posted August 29, 2014 Report Share Posted August 29, 2014 No reason at all. It'll save on weight if applicable and will not shorten its life if you just keep the charge topped up as opposed to the need to occasionally fully discharge/recharge the usual variety. The only thing it won't do is give advance warning that it's running low - speed drops - but as they have a charge indicator, it's of no consequence.

Jame Posted August 29, 2014 Report Share Posted August 29, 2014 They work very well, I fitted waterproof connectors and run a flapper and or magnet, lasts for at least 3 full days worth and has its own level indicator to show charge.

jimmyb79 Posted August 29, 2014 Author Report Share Posted August 29, 2014 Superb, handily they come with the extra bit of wiring too don't know why I didn't think of it before! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
