+start car from capacitor bank
Hello,
Car batteries have high internal resistance so they surely must put a big capacitor bank after it (in parallel).
To get enough capacitance they would have to use electrolytics, but electrolytics have low life expectancy.......usually about 2000 hours at 85C.
At say 55C they would have a life of 16000 hours but this is still only 1.8 years.
So howcome we don't always hear of cars needing replacement capacitor banks?
