Connecting to a Power Pack or Simple 12V Battery
All connecting cables contain a full wave bridge
diode in a sealed aluminum case (see left) to prevent
reverse current from traveling back from the battery
or motoring of the Human Power Generator.
The full wave bridge will also provide a consistent
polarity output that is not dependent on the
direction of rotation. In other words, this allows the
user to pedal in either direction safely with equal
results. All cables are 16 AWG
The only cable used with the Human Power
Generator that does not have an in-line diode is the
cable used with the 12VDC Educational Light Box or
the Power View Monitoring software, as the diode is
built into both of these products.
