DIY Voltage Stabilizer

n' royalty for me.....hahahahahaha!!!!! :lol:

hmm.

Pivot's unit probably has very nice smooth transients, with low ESR caps... premium caps, I suppose. I might try to source for some tommorow when I go to Jln Pasar.. but you people should know that the electronic components that u get @ Jalan Pasar are grade C components. simply because grade A goes directly to equipment manufacturers, grade B goes to resellers like RS and Farnell, grade C to the budding people.. which is why you will never get a huge variety of anything there (more likely surplus). Sigh.

As for the people selling the VS, it is a free market.. If you like the product and feel it's worth spending your money, feel free to buy it.. no pressure anywhere to buy or not. it's your dough.

I think is saw inductor coils at the raizin unit (with IC control sure cost more ler). That is why they are a bit diffrent, but for those brand like "KW", i am not sure. Cannot see inside B).

Cheap cheap DIY must compromize a bit ler.... hehehe but get result also mah... :)

(newbie alert, sifu please advice)

Hi all, just want to check with you guys. If when i plug the +ve and -ve from the VS to battery, i got spark, does that means that the VS is working ? How would i know that it is functioning correctly, meaning that it 'does' stablize the voltage ?

 

[drexchan]

use a multimeter. ;)

 

[ong]

aiyah my man, i'm truly newbie mah :(

How should the reading like ? would the needle thing go left-right or stay ? how to properly test it ? or if the circuit is ok then generally it would stablize the voltage ????? :blink:

 

[laichong]

just done mine today...

4 x 4700uF
4 x 3300uF
8 x 1000uF

fitted in car just now... will see how it perform later when i go out... :)

 

[xtorm]
