When my dad asked me to 'fix' his battery maintainer he knew they were fix able cause someone 'fixed' his old one a long time ago, well here i am holding this 'old' one, it belongs in a museum, i assume what few parts are quality ones cause this was from the days when people used quality stuff, i guess quality and design are very different things
This think has absolutely no regulation
I found 2 diodes in the bottom of the box just laying there
This thing appears to have 3 components
1 diode (assuming 1 is the old one, or the guy just dropped one and did not bother to remove it)
1 light bulb thingy, looks to be a thermal disconnect to prevent a burning out the transformer
1 transformer (rated at 3 amp)
the diode has this on it
1N
4001
I R
forward voltage is 0.5v
