Supercap faults

The battery is non-rechargeable and so any surplus power from the solar panel during daylight hours is used to charge up the supercap, which then acts as the first reserve of

Ideally, a user replaceable super capacitor that easily plugs in and out of the PC board like a fuse in some boards. This feature, a color

Vantage Pro 2 : basic questions about solar charger, super-cap,

The solar panel (s) is the primary source of power and charges the supercap. It also charges the batteries (should you use them) and runs the fan if you have the 24/7 FARS.

Low Battery problem finally solved Vantage Vue transmitter

It seems the main problem with it was missed packets and signal dropouts, it also seemed to be somewhat intermittent and unpredictable. I''m not sure if it had the low battery

Davis Vantage Vue ISS Capacitor Replacement

Being a G version ISS (round cables instead of ribbon cables) everything is potted at the transmitter so I decided to dig out the supercap using a a router. Unfortunately on the

Replace super capasitor

Everything pointed to a faulty super capacitor. When I opened the lid on my ISS, I saw traces of corrosion on one terminal of the super capacitor. This is one of the confirming

What Is A Supercapicitor?

The supercapicitor in your Vantage Pro2 or Vantage Vue sensor suite stores electricity, generated by the solar panel, to power the transmitter at night or during periods of low or no sunlight.
