[QUOTE="Gebrochen, post: 5773632, member: 571890"] Diodes have a 0.7 - 1.7 voltage drop. If you have power supplies to spare laying around, I think I'd try it without them. I have 3 that do 12V @ 22A and that's how I'm planning to hook them up for a bench-test setup in my garage. If I get around to it anytime soon I'll post back to this thread. If you hook a regular power supply to a battery, don't leave it on all the time because you'll overcharge and ruin your battery. [/QUOTE]
