At the bottom of the curve, we are no longer in the linear part. Ignore that bit, because it doesn't fit my argument.
I'm sorry that you are unable to grasp the basic principle. I'd not have tried to explain it at all if I'd realised.
I'm struggling to remember what this thread is about .................. can anyone give me a pointer or two?

I’ve blocked one contributor on this thread. Only reading one side of the argument has made no difference at all.I'm struggling to remember what this thread is about .................. can anyone give me a pointer or two?

Glad to see your still here. I wondered if you’d dozed off, like most of us.Oh, are we back on topic?
Parked up on a field in Derbyshire on a cloudy wet day been doing some measurements of power consumption. This morning the batteries were showing 12.72v but with not much use are now at 12.3v so guess I need to check them out individually.
It start of on solar Colin but some arsehole just ranted on and on and on guess they havent got a life lolI'm struggling to remember what this thread is about .................. can anyone give me a pointer or two?

It takes piston speed to force the tappered rings out on the bores,if light use they tend to have less pressure and polish the bore,and let oil pass by,also as the engine oil not running to temp sludge and acids build up and require more oil changes,take the rocker cover of a town engine and compair it to a high speed motorway engine,yep much less crud as the deturgents get to do there work.I'm keen to hear, just for reference. I'll be able to link to it next time this comes up lol.

It started as a discussion of how to generate power when solar doesn't work, then onto the technicalities of idling engine, then someone introduced an irrelevant graph and kept asking what it meant.It start of on solar Colin but some arsehole just ranted on and on and on guess they havent got a life lol
Tbh. It happened very often in the past, then it stopped. Now it’s back. We can only hope temporary

I waited until both leisure batteries were showing fully charged by the solar controller and then disconnected the older one. I'll let it settle overnight and measure the voltage in the morning which I guess should indicate it's true capacity.
If you did not pull the fuse on the solar panel then removing a battery not good,i take it you left one connected.I waited until both leisure batteries were showing fully charged by the solar controller and then disconnected the older one.
