  2. Trickle charging - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Trickle_charging

    Trickle charging is the process of charging a fully charged battery at a rate equal to its self-discharge rate, enabling the battery to remain at its fully charged level. This state occurs almost exclusively when the battery is not loaded, as trickle charging will not keep a battery charged if current is being drawn by a load.

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Jump_start_(vehicle)

    It is entirely possible to destroy a new lead-acid battery within months, requiring a replacement. Jump starters using lithium-ion batteries began appearing in the market around 2013. Most lithium jump starter brands use a high discharge lithium polymer or lithium-ion battery. Lithium jump starters are compact and lightweight compared to their ...

  4. Fingerboard - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Fingerboard

    For guitars, some players feel that smaller radii (7.25–10") are more comfortable for chord and rhythm playing, while larger radii (12"-16" and up to flat) are better for fast soloing. Conical and compound radius fingerboards try to merge both these features. The nut end of the fingerboard has a smaller radius to ease in forming chords.

  7. Multi-scale fingerboard - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Multi-scale_fingerboard

    A multi-scale fingerboard or fretboard is typically based on two scale lengths, but could potentially incorporate more. The most typical use is one (long) scale length for the low string and a different, usually shorter, scale for the highest string. This could be achieved by angling the nut, and bridge, and fanning the frets. Strings between ...

  8. Self-discharge - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Self-discharge

    How fast self-discharge in a battery occurs is dependent on the type of battery, state of charge, charging current, ambient temperature and other factors. [2] Primary batteries are not designed for recharging between manufacturing and use, and thus to be practical they must have much lower self-discharge rates than older types of secondary cells.

  9. Fingerboard (skateboard) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Fingerboard_(skateboard)

    A fingerboard is a scaled-down replica of a skateboard that a person "rides" with their fingers, rather than their feet. A fingerboard is typically 100 millimeters (3.9 in) long with width ranging from 26 to 55 mm (1.0 to 2.2 in), with graphics, trucks and plastic or ball-bearing wheels, like a skateboard. [1]
