Default Re: Why does my math not jive with 720 Calculator?

Looking back at it this morning (it was a long day yesterday) it appears that the 720 Calculator accessable via the link above uses the formula :

PAR = 0.95 / Surface Area x ASF

I was calculating PAR with the "set current" or total amps required rather than the current density. At this point, because the 720 calculator is so popular, I must assume that the 720 Calculator is correct and I am wrong...?

It just seems like an awefull lot of volts (30) to anodize at this current density. I suppose we all learn something everyday...

For sale : 1 barely used Encyclopedia Britannica set. Like new condition but no longer needed. Just got married and apparently the wife knows everything.

No...I didn't just get married nor do I have any books for sale...I just thought it was funny. It came to mind so I shared it...Have a great weekend all!
