2. Automobile accessory power - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Automobile_accessory_power

   Example energy flows for a late-model midsize passenger car: (a) urban driving; (b) highway driving. Source: U.S. Department of Energy . Automobile accessory power can be transferred by several different means. However, it is always ultimately derived from the automobile's internal combustion engine, battery, or other "prime mover" source of ...

3. Automotive battery - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Automotive_battery

   A typical 12 V, 40 Ah lead-acid car battery. An automotive battery, or car battery, is a rechargeable battery that is used to start a motor vehicle.. Its main purpose is to provide an electric current to the electric-powered starting motor, which in turn starts the chemically-powered internal combustion engine that actually propels the vehicle.

4. Automobile auxiliary power outlet - Wikipedia

6. Gear stick - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Gear_stick

   A standard 5-speed shift pattern (on a Peugeot 206 knob). A gear stick (rarely spelled gearstick), [1] [2] gear lever (both UK English), gearshift or shifter (both U.S. English), more formally known as a transmission lever, is a metal lever attached to the transmission of an automobile.

7. Charge pump - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Charge_pump

   A common application for charge-pump circuits is in RS-232 level shifters, where they are used to derive positive and negative voltages (often +10 V and −10 V) from a single 5 V or 3 V power supply rail. Charge pumps can also be used as LCD or white-LED drivers, generating high bias voltages from a single low-voltage supply, such as a battery.

8. Starter solenoid - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Starter_solenoid

   [1] The starter motor is a series, compound, or permanent magnet type electric motor with a solenoid and solenoid operated switch mounted on it. When low-current power from the starting battery is applied to the starter solenoid, usually through a key-operated switch, the solenoid closes high-current contacts for the starter motor and it starts ...

9. Manual transmission - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Manual_transmission

   Floor-mounted gear stick in a Mazda Protege passenger car Common shift pattern for a 5-speed transmission. In most vehicles with a manual transmission, the driver selects gears by manipulating a lever called a gear stick (also called a gearshift, gear lever or shifter). In most automobiles, the gear stick is located on the floor between the ...
