Flash Light Battery
Posted on Saturday, June 12, 2010 in Photography
alternator light goes out when engine starts but when battery is fully charged it starts to flash?
the system is on a narrow boat with two battery banks controlled by a master switch. no 1 battery; no 1 and no 2 battery banks; no 2 battery and Off. the engine is started on no 1, switched to 1 and 2 when running to charge all battery banks and, when moored up with engine off, switched to battery 2. (this leaves no 1 battery as the engine start battery and no 2 to serve domestic requirements. the flashing light only comes on when the battery banks are fully charged. It does not seem to affect the performance but I feel that it shouldn't flash at all.
When the engine circuit is switched on the light comes on as expected. when the engine is started the light goes out - as expected. the light only starts to flash when the batteries are fully charged.
I would appreciate some explanation from someone with more expertise than myself. thanks.
