Yes, you can replace a battery with a capacitor. The energy densities are much lower with capacitors, so the phone will have a very limited power on time, unless you use a lot of capacitors.

If dictated by the requirements, a switcher-based constant current source could replace R1. The bank C2 doesn''t need to charge super fast: a charge lasting 2-3 minutes would be reasonable given the application need of 20-30s backup time, but this can be adjusted as needed. Don''t forget about the extra PFC capacity needed to charge C2, and derate the 12V
Customer ServiceA capacitor can temporarily replace a battery in certain situations. However, capacitors have lower energy density, resulting in shorter power supply durations. To be effective, you may need several capacitors. They charge quickly but have limitations in power output over extended periods. However, the energy density of supercapacitors is lower than that of
Customer ServiceThe need for a capacitor is to ensure current flow in the absence or failure of a battery, though super capacitors are a different story and hard to source as well.

Got what I am very sure is the correct capacitor (5.5v 1.5f). Figured it would save a ton of desoldering and board removal hassle if I just snipped the
Customer ServiceCan I Replace the Capacitor With a Higher µF in a Power Supply? Yes, the smoothing capacitors of a power supply can be replaced by a higher µF capacitor. The smoothing capacitors smooth out the output voltage waveform of a power
Customer ServiceCapacitors are gaining attention as energy storage devices because they have higher charge and discharge rates than batteries. However, they face energy density and storage capacity challenges, limiting their effectiveness for long-term energy storage. Capacitors also suffer from self-discharge and voltage limitations, which affect their reliability and performance
Customer ServiceIn summary, batteries and capacitors serve unique roles in electronics, with batteries providing sustained energy and capacitors delivering quick bursts. The choice between them depends on your needs: batteries for long-term power and capacitors for rapid energy. Understanding these differences can help you make informed decisions in technology applications.
Customer ServiceI am considering replacing the coin battery in my shield design with a super capacitor. I wonder if someone else is doing this already. Any comments/suggestions? I''m using DS1307. It has a maximal I_battery of 500nA, maximal V_batt 3.5V. I intend to use the Arduino 3.3V supply to charge it to 3.3V. The minimal V_batt is 2V. I guess using some math I''m

Customer ServiceCan Capacitors Replace Batteries can capacitors replace batteries. While capacitors and batteries both store energy, they have fundamental differences that limit their interchangeability. Key Differences: Energy Density: Batteries, especially lithium-ion batteries, have significantly higher energy density. This means they can store more energy in a smaller
Customer ServiceHello Spicemasters. Well, once again, I am experiencing adventures in trial by fire. Recently I had a hard drive go out on my RAID 5 array. I purchased a replacement hard drive, rebuilt the array and everything was fantastic for a day or two. But then, I noticed this status on my array: "Smart Array E200i in Embedded Slot has one or more array accelerator
Customer ServiceYes, but could you replace it with a normal watch battery that isn''t rechargable? The 3023 5MZ is the correct Li-Ion upgrade for the Seiko Kinetic 5M2* and 5M4* movements.
Customer ServiceWhen contemplating caps instead of batteries, always compare the energy stored vs. volume & weight, because that''s most often the deal killer. A 1-farad, 5V capacitor can store 12.5J at 5V.

Customer ServiceYou can''t tell what that is until you remove the plate holding the capacitor/battery in. Then you should be able to see the part number on the top of the capacitor/battery thru the red insulation. Then you''ll know which you have (capacitor or battery). The Li-Ion battery will give you 6-7 months of power reserve, while the capacitor will give

Customer Service$begingroup$ When contemplating caps instead of batteries, always compare the energy stored vs. volume & weight, because that''s most often the deal killer. A 1-farad, 5V capacitor can store 12.5J at 5V. That''s roughly the energy equivalent of a LiPo battery with a capacity of 1mAh. You can''t find LiPo cells that small! $endgroup$ –

Customer ServiceI have a 5v 2amp external usb battery pack that dis/charges 4 18650 vape style batteries. Each is 3.7v 2500mah. My Question is, what size supercapacitor would replace the batteries, preferably more than the 10000 mah of the combined batteries? Big enough to hold and discharge over at least 2 hours. Then use solar panel to recharge the supercap
Customer ServiceThat battery is far bigger than any capacitor you''re likely to be able to buy. A very rough calculation suggests that 0.2Ah with a drop of voltage of 1V is roughly equivalent to a 720F capacitor (0.2Ah = 720As). And it would need to be a capacitor rated for 5V. The battery is probably intended as a back up if the power fails.
Customer ServiceI have a 3.8V 2900mAh battery and I was thinking if it''s possible to replace it with a bunch of capacitors. Here more specs about the battery. This is for a mobile phone and was planning to use capacitors instead of batteries since I use the phone as a modem and it always powered by its charger (Not sure how much power is given to the battery by the phone while charging) and
Customer ServiceThe only sensible use of a capacitor for starting that I''ve seen is a hybrid lead-acid with a capacitor. The battery charges the capacitor, which provides a large but brief surge
Customer ServiceSupercapacitors are superior to traditional capacitors due to their ability to store and release energy; however, they haven''t been able to replace the function of conventional Lithium-Ion batteries. It''s mainly because
Customer ServiceIt depends on the expected lifetime you need. If you are going to have more than tens of thousands of power fail events, then capacitors would assure you of a longer life, useful if it was an unattended situation like a remote island. However a battery would be so much smaller, cheaper and easier to use, that's the way I would go.
Battery is great at stabilizing voltage, capacitor just holds any voltage you connect it to. It's basically a very small battery (in terms of capacity) but very powerful (in terms of peak current). If your car can live with widely changing voltage (or if you put enough capacity to never discharge below 80%) there are no modifications needed.
It's not worth the bother. A capacitor costs more for a given capacity, and will occupy more volume. It might even be heavier. The only sensible use of a capacitor for starting that I've seen is a hybrid lead-acid with a capacitor. The battery charges the capacitor, which provides a large but brief surge current to start the engine.
That's absolute nightmare if you want to use capacitor as your primary power supply because you either need to work on any voltage from max to nearly 0, or put some power converter that will boost the voltage to keep it at steady level. If you want to save weight in a racing car, then just put the smallest battery that will keep the engine running.
Some RTCs have built-in battery charging circuits, perhaps a super capacitor can be substituted. I saw one suggestion to use a DS1302 because it has a charging circuit already in the RTC. I don't know how if differs in power consumption or if you might be able to charge the cap to a higher voltage and give you a long power off time.
Capacitor works by holding electric field between electrodes, unlike lead-acid cell which stores energy in chemical reactions between electrolyte and plates. Are there any modifications you have to do in order to use a capacitor instead of a battery? Battery is great at stabilizing voltage, capacitor just holds any voltage you connect it to.
