| Jun 30, 2020 at 21:02 | comment | added | Sherman | Yes. I have an understanding of my wattage output is too small, but I have seen applications where I can use a supercapacitor to provide a charge to get 500mA. How can I calculate the capacity of the supercapacitor? And what if I want to use only 500mA for less than a second then just have a steady flow of 50mAh right aftwrdas. Is this possible? | |
