After the BMW engine is turned off, the cigarette lighter will delay power off for about 10 minutes. Cigarette lighter: It is a car device that draws power from the car's power supply to heat electric heating units such as metal heating plates or metal heating wires, providing a fire source for lighting cigarettes. Transformation of the cigarette lighter: With the development of automobiles and the changing needs of people, the cigarette lighter interface can usually be equipped with a car inverter to charge mobile electronic devices, etc. The central elastic head of the interface is the positive pole, and the clips on both sides are the negative poles. The power supply is directly connected to the car battery, and the current power is the same as that of the battery.

What is the purpose of an RV inverter?

An inverter is a device that converts direct current (DC) into alternating current (AC). Extended information: 1. Principle: An inverter is an electronic device that transforms low-voltage (12V, 24V, or 48V) DC power into 220V AC power. It consists of an inverter bridge, control logic, and a filter circuit. 2. Technology: The inverter converts the 12V DC voltage output by the Adapter into high-frequency high-voltage AC; both parts employ the widely used Pulse Width Modulation (PWM) technology. The core component is a PWM integrated controller, with the Adapter using UC3842 and the inverter using the TL5001 chip. 3. Power: The inverter itself consumes a portion of power during operation, so the input power must be greater than the output power. The efficiency of the inverter is the ratio of the output power to the input power, i.e., inverter efficiency equals output power divided by input power.

What is the Difference Between 360-Degree Surround View and Rearview Camera?

360-degree surround view provides an ultra-wide perspective, while the rearview camera, also known as the reverse visible system or onboard monitoring system, serves a different purpose. The main differences between 360-degree surround view and rearview camera are as follows: 1. Imaging: The rearview camera is specifically designed for reversing and only displays the vehicle's front and rear conditions. In contrast, the 360-degree surround view captures a full circle of the vehicle's surroundings, showing road conditions all around. 2. System Differences: The 360-degree camera employs a fisheye panoramic imaging optical system with no central blind spots, offering 3 million pixels for high-definition output. The rearview camera system is widely used in various large, medium, and small vehicles for reversing or driving safety assistance. 3. Principle Differences: The rearview camera system uses a TFT true-color display with anti-magnetic treatment to eliminate signal interference and flickering. It can receive two video inputs simultaneously, play VCDs and DVDs without requiring a decoder. The 360-degree camera synthesizes images from four 180-degree wide-angle cameras installed on the front, rear, and sides of the vehicle into a bird's-eye view displayed on the in-car monitor.

Why is the car air conditioning cooling but not draining water?

Car air conditioning cooling without drainage may be due to a blocked drain hole, resulting in poor cooling effect. Additional information: 1. Inspection method: Check if the air conditioning drain hole is blocked; Lift the floor mat to see if there is water accumulation under the passenger seat; Use a thermometer to measure the air outlet temperature to see if it is normal. 2. Common causes of blockage: After disassembling and reassembling the dashboard at a repair shop, the drain pipe may not be installed correctly, causing water to flow into the car, with the common symptom being water marks on the carpet. If it is a new car, the evaporator core may be internally blocked, or the drain outlet of the evaporator core may not have been properly treated during production; The connection between the drain outlet of the evaporator core and the rubber drain pipe may have come loose or is not properly connected. 3. Solution: If you encounter the problem of the air conditioning not draining, immediately go to a 4S shop or repair point to find a professional technician to handle it.

Why is the Beidou System Mandatory for Heavy Trucks?

The reasons why heavy trucks must be equipped with the Beidou system are as follows: 1. The installation of the Beidou satellite positioning device facilitates driving data statistics: It can scientifically record and analyze a large amount of data such as vehicle speed, location, mileage, fuel consumption, driving time, driving direction, anti-theft alarms, etc., providing a basis for high-level decision-making. 2. Installing the Beidou satellite positioning device can improve work efficiency: After installation, the dispatch center can formulate optimal scheduling plans, reduce the workload of dispatchers, achieve scientific scheduling, greatly improve resource utilization and turnover rates, and provide comprehensive and efficient management for vehicles in industries such as buses, taxis, logistics vehicles, and engineering vehicles. 3. Installing the Beidou satellite positioning device can enhance driving safety: The backend dispatch center of the Beidou satellite positioning device can strictly monitor various safety issues such as vehicle speed, route, fatigue driving, and emergency assistance, ensuring greater safety for people and property. 4. Installing the Beidou satellite positioning device is beneficial for corporate cost control: The device enables real-time tracking and positioning of vehicles, supervision of vehicle operating status, monitoring of the rationality of fuel consumption and refueling amounts, comparison of various expenses with actual costs, and establishment of important bases for vehicle management systems, which helps in corporate cost control.
