Why did I choose 24v? Because I want to charge with panels. I will just switched from charging my house battery to this. You must find out how you want to charge the battery. If you want to use nepa, buy Laptop charger and step up the voltage from 19v to 24 volts. So take note. 1 Like |

Notice: Most pack will power your laptop but will not charge it. After some testing with my first laptop battery pack, I began to search for how to ensure my DIY battery is charging my laptop and powering it. Long story short. I succeeded. But |

So I needed to add something to my connector called sensor. It's a 3 pin capacitor. Positive pin Negative pin Sensor pin. Remember your hp adapter has 3 wire colorwhen you cut it. White color -ve Red color +ve Black color. Sensor. 1 Like |

eliok: How many hours do you get powering your laptop |
Re: My Solar Set Up Journey After A Year. Very Cool by eliok(m): 2:11pm On Sep 06, 2021 |
zenith4biz:my brother, i don't count. My former pack was 94 batteries and I use it for 8 hours. This one is 120 batteries. Probably 10 or more. I use the battery only for laptop and sometimes I use nepa. So I haven't tested this. But will empty it one day. I can only work 3-5 hours at a time . So unless there is rainfall and no nepa for two days before I notice a fall in battery level. Otherwise. It's usually NEPA to battery and back to NEPA 1 Like |
