Title: 6V or 12V for Mini-Me
Post by: capnhook on September 05, 2008, 04:01:58 AM

I'm running my mini-me on a 6V SLA right now.......if the Ah capacities were equal, should I run a 12V setup instead?  I'm thinking along the terms of the mini-me's brown-out voltage......shouldn't running 12V give me more run time?  ???

Thanks,
Kevin

I always ran a 6v Eco-Charge when running the MiniMe and I would get about 6.5 hours from it before dying.  To solve the problem of run time, I bought another 6v Eco-Charge.  Problem solved.

Have you ever held a 12v?

Way to heavy IMO buy another 6v.
