Regenerative discharge
Regenerative discharge routes most of the energy from the pack being discharged back
into the Lead Acid battery powering the PowerLab 8. This feature is only available when
the PowerLab 8 is powered from a Lead Acid battery. Regenerative discharge supports
up to 40A, 1344W maximum.
Regenerative discharge
Enable/disable regenerative discharge at the PowerLab 8 via
for the supply battery.
Enable/disable regenerative discharge, and set maximum discharge current and
maximum discharge voltage, in the CCS
. Remember also to set supply
battery low voltage cutoff and maximum output current for charge cycles.
PowerLab 8 automatically determines whether it is connected to a Lead Acid battery or a
DC power supply. If it detects a power supply, it switches to internal discharge (10mA to
10A, 100W maximum).
