I'm finding out that the Tesla Powerwall output isn't 48V but 600VDC.

I may have just made a big mistake. just purchased a SolarCity inverter. It has great specs. 6000 watt, hybrid, 240 vac split phase output, low frequency, etc. But... I've just learned that it's only compatible with a Tesla Powerwall for battery backup. How can this be??? Can anyone shed light...

Well... (that's a deep subject) I'm learning a few things on this journey. My first was in buying a Hex Shank Shovel Spade Chisel Bits for Demolition Hammer turns out that just because the shank is shaped right does'nt mean it's the right size. Guess next time I'll measure. :oops: (or ask)...

Outstanding WWheeler, that is spot on. Haven't found the part yet but I'm sure one will turn up sooner or later. There are quite a few parts dealers out there, so I'll keep looking till I find what I need. Regards, Jim

Here are some pix of the unit in question. I got it at a garage sale and writing and numbers are all worn off. The part I need most is the rubber stopper on the tool holding pin, it doesn't show on the photo but the rubber is all busted up and not usable. I also dont know what to call the shank...

Thanks Cobbler. I have ordered a carb. from Amazon. It will be here Sunday. I started to clean the carburator but I buggered up the screwdriver slot on the thing that screws into the bowl support so I went ahead and bought a new carb. after all. Thanks for all the support.

Hi mm08822 and Davefr, thanks. I had just returned from the Harbor Freight site with the same link in tow. I had always believed that HF never carried replacement parts for their stuff. Well, live and learn I guess. In the past few years, I haven't been cleaning carbuerators because they are so...

I don’t know if this is the right forum so admin please relocate if necessary. I have recently purchased a generator “as-is” and I’m sure it needs a carburetor. It’s a Harbor Freight Predator 8750. I will need help finding the correct identification of the engine, so I can buy parts. Is it a...

Thanks Moss, no, the batteries in the scooter are running barefoot. There is no BMS or charge controller of any kind.

Thanks. I know that you said that with tounge in cheek. The irony is that the cost of that charger is more than the cost of the scooter batteries and all. :)

Hi kinglake and moss, thanks for calling my attention to the photo. I have already cancelled that order. I JOI guess you need to know that about 10 years ago I had a similar Chinese scooter with just a different badge. Naturally it had SLA’s. Well, I fried the hell out of those batteries in...

I found one. Its not as much amperage as I wanted but it's designed for AGM so it will do as I look for one with at least 10 amp capacity. 48v AGM Charger Thanks for all the help. Great discussion, just as I have come to love on Garage Journal.

Thank you jsf721. That's what I'm talkiing about. Still looking for a good (not just a lead acid one that's been re-labled) AGM charger that won't break the bank. (maybe I shouldn't be talking about break the bank. Might cause a virtual run.)
