u caller night eye

[shotgunny 39]

hi all

i recently bought a u caller night eye lamping kit with a 12 volt battery pack and charger.

When i went out last night after about an hour the light wasnt worth a piss.

Is this normal for the battery to die out this quick

I had it charging over night and it was at full strenght when i left home.

Hi myles.It depends on what size battery & bulb you have.If you know what power the bulb is (25,50watt) divide that number by the voltage of the batt (12v).That will tell you how many amps the bulb will pull.Then find out what amphour the batt is.Divide the amp hour of the batt by the amps of the bulb & that will give you the run time.

So a 50 watt bulb will pull 4amps.Fitted to a 10 amph batt,you should get about 2.5h continuous run time.But as the battery discharges & voltage drops the light will start to dim.Dont over discharge your batt.If the voltage drops to low when you put it on charge the charger may not sense the batt & wont kick in.Hope this answers your question.Kev.
