Powering ESP32 and two MG90S using supercapacitor
Summary: Small LiIon cells (maybe two in series) may meet your requirement but to minimise size and mass you may need to be prepared to use devices outside their ratings. This is doable in some cases ...

Circuit to light up LED only once
The 74C14 (unbuffered) hex schmitt inverter has a static whole package (6 inverters) current of typically 50 nA at 15V supply and maximum 15 uA across the temperature range. At 25C it will usually be ...

Why is my lead acid battery suddenly dead?
You overdischarged it, and probably it's old besides.
As lead-acid discharges, on the one electrode, lead sulfate builds up -- an insulator. This is why internal resistance increases as the battery ...

Solve this puzzle: Car lighter port blowing phone battery
The lighter port is a 12V high current source. I speculate that it is difficult to break. To use it to charge a phone, there must be a 12V to 5V adapter (USB style??). The charging adapter is ...

Solve this puzzle: Car lighter port blowing phone battery
This sounds more like a failure of the alternator/voltage regulator system in your Jeep, causing voltage spikes above the acceptable ~12V to ~14V range. You can test this with a voltmeter that has a ...
