[AFMUG] battery nerd question

2023-08-14 Thread Steve Jones
Just trying to cipher runtimes
I have on hand 150ah 12 volt batteries, so thats what id be looking to use.
Excluding the conversion loss of a 12v to 48v step up converter is the math
correct here?
12v 150ah=1800 watt hours
1800 watt hours at 48v = 37.5ah
50 watts of radio running 48v = 1.04 amps
37.5ah @ 1.04 amps = 32.77 hours runtime

does a step up that claims 95% efficiency mean 95% of the watt hours?

Re: [AFMUG] sector antennas: Dual band, Single input

2023-08-14 Thread dmmoffett
Aaaannd the Air802 one is V-Pol only.  It does have a combined input, but
single polarity.  
So I guess my only option is L-Com/Hyperlink at the moment.

Bah..I can't read.  I sent the wrong L-Com link a minute ago. 

https://www.l-com.com/Images/Downloadables/Datasheets/ds_HG2458-15DP-090.pdf

 

I initially linked to a V-Pol antenna.  THIS is the one.  And they don't
have a special name for it.  On the spec sheet it says "Dual Polarity / Dual
Frequency feed system in single enclosure"

Subject: sector antennas: Dual band, Single input

 

Ruckus T350SE has 2 external antenna connectors for a dual band 2x2 AP.  It
seems they're combining the output of both frequencies onto one connector so
they only need two instead of four.  

 

So I'm looking for dual band sector antennas where 5ghz and 2ghz are on the
same connector.  They exist, but pickins are slim.

 

*   Ruckus sells one, but it's only 120 degree and gain isn't all that
great.
*   L-Com has a 5 foot tall monster:
https://www.l-com.com/Images/Downloadables/Datasheets/ds_HG2458-15DP-090.pdf

 

*   This company I've never heard of has one:
https://www.air802.com/sector-antenna-dual-band-2.4-and-5.1-to-5.8-ghz-dual-
band-two-n-connectors.html

 

I'm not even sure if there's an agreed upon terminology for this.  L-Com is
calling it "Dual Band, Dual Feed", and Air802 is calling it "Dual Band, two
N connectors". 

Air802 is smaller than L-Com, but claims higher gain...not sure if they're
getting creative with measuring gain or if L-Com's just has a bulky design.
I'm curious if anyone can vouch for that vendor.  Feel free to slam them
too, we don't need to be shy here. 

 

Has anyone crossed this bridge already?  Are there more options out there?

Yeah the v3 is kick ass,  so much better than the older ones.  I do love the 
warning of high doses of Vit C will kill the sensor ☺

I don’t even have T2D but use it to get a feel for what foods do what to spikes 
and such,  helps make better choices.Though the tape on these doesn’t seem 
to be a good,  lost a few / had to start using the covers to get the full 2

We have one inverter supplied by a low voltage contractor.  It's really
nice, but no idea what it cost.  They usually quote us one line item for
