Power Supply Plan 24 Volts 300Watt heatpad or higher : Saferhttps://hackaday.io/project/8680-power-supply-plan-24-volts-300watt-heatpad

My original quote is based on the project you called me in for. If I find out there’s actually a larger issue at hand, I’ll need to increase my price to match the scope of the project. I’m not ripping you off, I’m just making sure I get compensated for the extra work.

• A 24-V dc circuit • Current waveform for surge is 8 × 20 μs; voltage waveform is 1.2 × 50 μs (these are typical industry-standard waveforms) • Peak current during the surge = 1000 A • The MOV must be able to survive 40 surges • Other circuit components (control IC, etc.) must be rated to withstand 300 V maximum

My own maxim is that just because something can be – and perhaps often is – done poorly or hazardously does not at all preclude any possibility that it can be done properly and safely.

I often say this, and I will say it again: just because a thing is often done poorly, foolishly or dangerously does not in and of itself preclude it from being done properly.

Overall though, you’re just talking about increased RMS voltage allowing more current; the more current the more burn, heart arrhythmia and neuromuscular effects.

I came here to post those two points! The corollaries to 1) are that should something go wrong, you have a chance if there is someone else there who knows CPR. I like mandatory CPR training for lab workers because of this. AEDs are good too. Rules against playing with things that can shock you while working alone are also good, but much harder to follow–I’ve spent decades working alone in research labs. CPR fails way more often than not, but electrical shocks are an important exception to that rule. And you almost got the extra credit for correctly spelling arrhythmia.

We were pretty close to that 40% rule when our controllers started to fail, which is probably why they only started failing after our customers had use the controllers a few times. We were pushing 22 Amps through 40 Amp rated parts. In other words, using a component at half its rating still won’t cover for substandard parts! Our solution was to find a part that was manufactured to spec and also use the component at half its rating and we’ve not had a verified SSR related failure since.

Precisely, there is no need to reinvent the wheel (even though is more fun). This even has basic temperature control, just add a digital readout and an arduino somwhere.

It’s *mostly* read-only. They usually have a LED for power-on indication. You could stick something to the front to detect that, if you needed a response. Tho for things like lights, usually the user will press the button again if they don’t come on the first time.

Potential starting relays consist of a high resistance coil and a set of normally closed contacts. The coil is wired between terminals 2 and 5, with the contacts between terminals 1 and 2.

Add in the approx. 75 cents of AC shore power I pump in every night, and it works out in my head to about 5 cents per mile. Takes a lot of words and numbers to explain that figure, but the practical impact is that every day I drove over two hours, the car bought me lunch. I feel like I’ve patched a hole in my money pocket. This is half the running cost of any other car I’ve owned, including the TDI.
