Product Overview:

A Tank is a circuit that is used to sustain your PC and keep it running while you try to start your car. It works by using a small secondary battery to deliver current while the main vehicle battery is being drained by the starter. These batteries are used for that circuit.

Features:

  • The easiest way for your PC to survive while cranking your car
  • The only commercially available tank circuit
  • Typical voltage drop: 0.58 volts - The voltage typically lost using this circuit
  • Max voltage drop: 0.78 volts - Maximum voltage lost using this circuit
  • Continuous Current: 20 Amps - The amount of current that can safely be drawn by your inverter or DC-DC PSU.
  • Sustained Peak Current: 40 Amps - The amount of current that can safely be drawn for a brief amount of time. Length of time is dependant upon ambient temperature, airflow, and other considerations.
  • Peak Current: 80Amps - The maximum momentary current that can be drawn.
  • Connectors Included - 6 Fast-On 12-14 gauge 0.25" Female crimp connectors are included. If you purchase a SLA battery with the Tank, you will receive 2 additional connectors.
  • Size - 1.6" Wide x 1.8" Long x 2.2" High
  • We Carry a 12 volt 7AHr SLA battery and a 12 volt 12AHr SLA battery
