[QUOTE="Dirt Farmer, post: 1634903, member: 37993"] I took some electrical theory years ago and at first didn’t see how the voltage could increase. If it was a complete circuit, you would absolutely expect it to have a lower voltage farther from the charger. It would have to because of resistance in the wire. After thinking about it not being a complete circuit, things change. With the hot wire not completing a circuit, you have the magnetic field collapsing on itself and inducing voltage. This may or may not be the reason for the increased voltage at the end of the run. I have a hard time believing the next pulse will have any effect because of how fast electricity travels compared to the relatively slow time between pulses. I don’t know enough to say if the voltage will double back on itself. I briefly search the interwebs but couldn’t find anything other than what has already been found. If I come up with a better answer, I’ll let y’all know. This has piqued my interest. [/QUOTE]
