Jamaican Slang. Always changing, never ordinary! To keep current with Jamaican slang, you need a teenager. So that's what I did for this page. I asked about ten teenagers to brainstorm (no, I didn't actually say brainstorm) with their classmates to come up with the latest expressions.
Most solar panels are 12 volt so use the same equation to find out how many amps the panel makes. 80W = 12V * X Amps 80/12 = 6.67 amps A 50 Amp Hour battery takes 50 hours to charge at 1 amp, 25 hours to charge at 2 amps, and 50/X hours to charge at X amps, just like the discharge calculation above.50/6.67=7.5 hours.ow most CFLs are 120 volts AC and not 12 volts DC like the battery, so I assume you have an inverter to make 120V AC power from the battery. The inverter will not be 100% efficient so the lights will last a little less than the full 23 hours.
Wet-cell batteries self-discharge at about 1% of amp-hour rating per day--more in hot weather, less when it's cold. So to float charge the battery, i.e., maintain a full charge, we need an equivalent charge rate. For a 100-amp-hour battery, that means a solar panel with a daily output of about one amp-hour.Solar panels, however, are rated in watts. To determine the output current in amps, divide the watt rating by 15--the approximate true output voltage of a typical solar panel.or a 100-amp-hour battery, that means a solar panel with a daily output of about one amp-hour.
