Hi all,

I want to make a mechanical wood cutting device powered by a second hand 12v windsceen wiper motor, I

I would like to know if it is ok to do this with a 12v lead acid battery charger ? I am in Australia on 240 V power

The battery charger I have is made by yk and on the front says

YK -c1212 Automatic charger
12v lead acid battery


There is a charging indicator light and a power on of switch.

On the back

There are Two fuses , above these it says

15A 32 V 4at 250V

I gave it a try and it ran the motor,but would just like to know is it safe ?
I would want to run it for an hour or two at a time, or is ther another way this should be done ?

regards Rob

problem solved.

I found out today there are auto stores that sell power supplies that do the job,
and that battery chargers are not the way to go.

cheers Rob
