1 AnswerPlayStation9 years agoCharging a 6 volt motorcycle battery?
I just want to be sure, I can charge a 6 volt battery with a 6 volt, 6 amp charger? The reason why i was asking was because we didn't have charger that was rated for 6 volts, (Till I just found one now) and the other charger was a much much older one that charged at a slower pace, I think it was 1 amp an hour. I just want to be sure I'd be fine with jamming 6 amps into that battery? o.O
6 AnswersMaintenance & Repairs9 years agoWhat can I do, my dog is not eating?
So, I have this older shep chow mix for over ten years, she's getting older. But past few weeks she wont eat anything, she's been throwing up. At first, I thought it was worms but she had worms, then she'd be excessively hungry. Anyway She's getting to be really skinny and I'm really worried now, I wanted to know if there was anything I can do, just before taking the dog to the vet. She'll eat a couple of things, two pieces of hot dog, and then wont bother with the rest. Anyone know what's going on?

2 AnswersDesktops9 years agoHelp with Logarithms?
So I'm trying to study Logs and this one problem makes no sense at all.
So the problem is using Decibels for an example.
Where I get stuck is:
L = 10log(10^10)
Then it says Find that k=log(10^10) then on and on.
What i don't understand is up L = 10 log (10^10) ends up being k - log (10^10)
How does the 10 before the log, move around and why?

1 AnswerPersonal Finance9 years agoWhy does it take forever to get to the POST screen on my laptop?
So I have this Lenovo x200 laptop. The first time I was able to flash the bios and it worked fine after that, but until recently the computer froze and started doing the same thing over again. When you press the power button, it sits there for like 15 minutes and then it gets the the POST screen and everything starts up normal. I did some poking around on the internetz and some said that the BIOS would need a flashing, or yank out the CMOS battery.
I was wondering, could it be that the CMOS battery is dying and needs to be replaced?
If not, is it the BIOS? If so, how do I downgrade so I can just flash the BIOS?
Answers, Tips, Suggestions, Helpful hints or a fix it explanation would be great :D
1 AnswerLaptops & Notebooks9 years agoWhere do I start with a Ring and Valve job?
So, I wanted to restore a 1974 Kawasaki F11. So I got the electrical to work and the motorcycle fires. Out the exhaust is all this black smoke. I was told it might need a ring and valve job, or or piston grinding.
Well I let it run and the black smoke lessened the longer it ran but it shouldn't have black smoke. I was wondering where do I want to start with this job? Honestly I'm not sure how much would it take to take it in and/or if anyone would still service it.
Where do I want to start?
1 AnswerMaintenance & Repairs10 years agoI want to be building a high powered flashlight with LEDs. It's required to have a LED driver and or resistor?
So I wanted to build a high powered 200 lumens flashlight with an LED. It's 3.2V~3.3V. I was wanting to know if I could hook up a pair of AA batteries in sequence along with a switch to the LED and use it like that. It would give me a 3 volts.

3 AnswersOther - Electronics1 decade agoAnyone Familiar with laptop screens?
So, I got this Compal Laptop (Someone gave it to me, and who knew? Out of business and I can't find the specs for it. lol) I ended up doing a lot of research and It said it had a 15.4" WXGA screen, I've seen a few. Mine's a 30Pin connector for Video and 2 for the backlight.
Can I take from another laptop (say Dell, Compaq, IBM or what ever) that has a 15.4" WXGA screen and plug that in? The descriptions are so horrible they say, it's just a laptop screen that it came out of this computer, or that computer.
If someone could shed some light on that, that would be great.
Also if someone can send me a link to the specs for a Compal EL80 model, thanks that would be great.
