From John C. Payne, on eof the foremost international authorities on marine electrical systems and electronics, comes a new series of easy-to-understand yet thorough treatments of technical issues facing every boat owner, whether sail or power. Each volume is concise, compact, and fully illustrated for easy reference. Understanding Boat Batteries and Battery Charging covers: general battery information, lead acid batteries, AGM batteries, gel batteries, battery ratings and selection, safety and maintenance, charging, alternators, and regulators.

There are also sections on alternators, regulators, and alternative charging, from wind and sun. * Sailing and Yachting *
