On Wednesday, I spent my last hours with my mentor. He showed me a battery charger for charging the car battery, it looked like a set of jumper cables for a sec because of the clamps. He taught me the proper way to charge a battery and its very easy. If you set the clamps the wrong way you can burn the fuse out and damage the components. The right way to place the claps on a battery is always start with negative first, positive last. This way, the battery doesn't make any sparks and nothing gets fried. My mentor said when performing this job, you should wear safety glasses so you don't get any battery acid in your eye. I enjoyed the last hours with my mentor and we became very good friends, I hope to see him again in the future and I really appreciated the fact he made time for me, helping me get a grade for my capstone project.
