Yea

I've been to "their" site.

I wanted user opinions.

Anybody can read "their" info, user feedback is allways better info!

Looks like I'll be the first .

No user info.

 But went to their site, the wave form they show looks alot like the cap. chargers that were being worked on here (at this site) a year or so ago.

Clicked on one of their dealer links. 12V 25A unit $95.

You just had to enter "flexcharge.com" into the search.

I guess the term search is lost on many these days.

Funny I found a veritable ton of info on who it really is:

Wow

I quess I was entering the entire address

ya know

http://

Anyway, I won the bid and paid 4 it, they have shipped it out already.

I am just keeping a couple toes crossed.

I have wind gennies, (no towers yet but not able to here anyways).

I will put up a H

And a V

Bolth being PM DC Motors, Ametec 30VDC and a treadmill motor 120VDC 2.5HP way out there RMP's but it will show 12 V DC when spinning by hand.

Won a couple more and should be here early next week, one weighted 6-7 Lbs, Ametek I think, Other 28 Lbs, servomotor, I have feeling they are trying to pull a switch-a-rue

on me with that one, posted a new pic of OLD JUNK after they sent freight amount and I questioned it but paid it, they found out that it was just short of two dollars OFF and I had already paid amount they asked for. They stalled shippment from Nov 26 to Dec 5.

Frickn Ebay. O well. just more  junk.

I have a NEW DeepCycle and a pile of cores, D/C 5 or 6, with the cranking Bat out of boat for winter.

A few of the cores, (ALL showed at least 11 V DC when I got them) charged up to 12.6 easly with AC charger.

I've got battery seperation devices, (Big honkin Diodes under heatsinks I belive).

I've got a waterheater element, 200WATT

A AC Heater i belive I can hook up the element and use as Dump/w Heat for Battery area.

I just needed a "Control", all the homebuilt circuits i've found had at least one or two items I couldn't locat localy, so thats all on Holding for now.

I can't find my darn jewelrs loop to see the parts and read the numbers very well.

I have piles of parts from getting happy with my solder-sucker n Iron when I just needed a few micro switchs n plugs for putting a cheap lazer pointer on my 10-22.

I just couldn't throw away the electronic parts and am renewing an old, (test tube Days) interest in building stuff.

now I've gone "with the wind". lol

Thanks

"the wave form they show looks alot like the cap. chargers that were being worked on here (at this site) a year or so ago"
