Mechanical charger. Charger for a car battery. The operating rules of chargers

Submitted:

An article is a review for lovers of something to break. ;)
In this case, a mechanical charger is disassembled for cell phones.

I am confident that many of us have repeatedly come across the problem of charging the battery of a mobile phone during any trips. Often, going on the road, we simply forget to look at the display of the phone and make sure that its battery is charged. And only on the way it turns out that it is impossible to accept an important call, because the phone is about to turn off. Someone from us is and simply so long trips that even a fully charged phone battery has time to discharge, and access to the AC network, no circumstance, no.

Accordingly, there is also no possibility to use the standard charger from the phone set. Yes, you never know what other situations can be in life. But to mobile phones, or rather the permanent availability telephone communicationMost of us are so accustomed that they feel very uncomfortable without it, even if this connection is not needed at all. Well, if there are constantly available in such situations at the disposal of the "victim", for example, the onboard network of the car. Then you can use the automotive charger, which today is abundant on the shelves of the corresponding stores.

But what to do, if you need to recharge the mobile phone battery in other conditions, for example, in a tourist campaign, where there is no familiar and the available energy sources suitable for powering the phone? Fortunately, today there are already devices capable of helping us and in such extreme situations. I think it's not difficult to guess that it is about one of these devices supplied to Russia under the brand name NEODRIVE, and will be discussed in this material.

As can be seen on the above photo, the packaging of the charger under consideration does not represent anything outstanding or original. Before us is the most ordinary blister with a piece of cardboard invested in it, the design of the front side of which I don't even want to evaluate. However, the end user, it seems to me, this design will be completely indifferent, for the packaging is not required for normal operation of the device. It may be necessary for the information printed on back side Invested in a blister cardboard, but I will come back to it, but for now we will continue to inspect the set. So, in addition to cardboard, the following is also packed in the blister:

1. Dynamo machine with manual drive
2. Extension cable
3. Five adapters for powering the most popular phone models

Here is the kit gets a user by purchasing the considered charger (By the way, it is multifunctional). Is he sufficient? At first glance, yes. However, it is well reflected and appreciating the conditions for which this device is intended, you can come to the conclusion that the set could be somewhat richer for the greatest user comfort. What is missing in it? In my opinion, one very essential detail, but about what is missing for my reasons, I will report a little later, after it will be considered in detail the presented device and its work.

Dynamo machine …

So, before us is the main component of the charger under consideration, is a dynamo machine with a manual drive, that is, the source of energy required in the hiking conditions. The unit is not large, as it is equipped with a folding handle. Its maximum dimensions in the folded state are 58x47x32 mm. Such important in terms of transportation parameter as a weight is also insignificant and comparable with the weight of modern mobile phones (about 85 grams).

The device body has a curved shape with rounded ends. Apparently, this is done so that during operation it is conveniently located in the hand of the user. The material from which this housing is made is a blue translucent smoky plastic, and the folding handle is made of black plastic. In addition to the handle on the unit, the connector is also detected for connecting the extension cable included in the package of the Charger under consideration, the red glow LED, and the attached strap on the wrist, which may be really useful in hiking conditions. That's just this strap, in my opinion, is somewhat small (the circumference length is 214 mm).

The insides of the dynamo machine can be seen on the photograph presented above. However, with good lighting, they are also partially visible and through a translucent device case. The main component here is the generator, the shaft of which is connected to the black handle of the device by means of a toothed transmission. In addition to the generator and gear gear, under the case also hides a small printed circuit boardon which although somewhat primitive, but quite workable electrical circuit Voltage stabilizer. In general, the design is sufficiently reliable for operation in the field.

Theoretically, its only weak point is a gear transmission. So, during the operation of the Dynamo, I recommend not too much when the handle is rotated. Otherwise, plastic gears of gear can simply fail.

Cable and adapters ...

The cable included in the charger is inherently no more than just an extension (length 61.5 cm). In general, it is possible to do without it without it, simply by turning on the adapter corresponding to the user's mobile phone, directly into the Dynamo Machine connector. However, in this case, the charger can be operated as conveniently as when using the cable, since the mobile phone and the charger under consideration will be rigidly interconnected, and will represent a single design. The reliability of such a design leaves much to be desired, so it is imperative to use users to use an extension cable, including it, respectively, between the dynamo and adapter for a mobile phone.

I think that the appointment of adapters for mobile phones and so everyone is understandable. In total, five adapters are supplied in a set of the charger under consideration, with which it is possible to connect this device to the most popular mobile phone models today. For incomprehensible reasons, information about what kind of models of phones are suitable for these adapters, there is no on the charger packaging. However, this information can be detected on the website of the supplier.

So, the kit includes adapters compatible with the following phones models: Nokia (models 8210, 8310, 8850, 3310, 3210, 5210, 6210, 6310, 6510, 6210, 7210, 7650, 2100, and other compatible with them), Ericsson ( Sony Ericsson.) (Models T28, T39, T68, T20, R320, R380, A2618, T610, T630, and other compatible with them), Motorola (models V998, V3688, V8088, Startac, T189, CD928, P7689, V2088, L2000, A6188 , and other compatible with them), Siemens (models C25, S25, C35, C45, S45, A35, SL42, SL45, 6688, and other compatible with them), Alcatel (models OT310, OT511, OT512, OT525, 715, and Other compatible with them), samsung (models A200, A300, A400, T100, T200, N620, and other compatible with them). As you can see, the charger under consideration turns out to be very universal and will suit the overwhelming majority of mobile phones users, which may potentially need it.

And how does it work?

I think that the descriptions of the individual components of the charger under consideration are quite enough in order to understand what it represents. Now you can go to the description of practical experiments spent on this device and evaluate it, so to speak, in action. So, proceed ...

To bring the charger to the operating status and connecting it to the mobile phone, you must perform four simple operations. Enable the extension cable into the Dynamo connector. Include in the extension cable connector adapter suitable for connecting to a mobile phone whose battery must be recharged. Enable adapter into the connector of this mobile phone. After that, you can reveal the folding handle of the dynamo machine and take advantage of the charger ready for operation.

To use it as you can simply. It is enough just to rotate the Dynamo machine handle with a frequency sufficient so that the battery charging process is indicated on the screen of the rechargeable mobile phone. The information printed on the cardboard attached to the charger package says that it is enough to rotate the dynamo knob for three minutes with a frequency of 2-2.5 turns per second. After that, according to the manufacturer's application, the user will be provided from three to five minutes. mobile communications. As you, we connect the charger to the first mobile phone to work under the arm (it turned out to be Nokia 8850) and check the manufacturer's promises.

It should be noted that the experiments were conducted with a mobile phone, the battery of which was discharged naturally when the phone was in a state of waiting for a call. At the same time, from the moment of turning off the phone due to the discharge of the battery and before the start of the experiments, one hour passed.

By the way, before the start of experiments with a mobile phone, another application of the manufacturer was also checked for security purposes. This refers to the output voltage of the dynamo machine. The measurements showed that the voltage at the output of this unit is 6.4 V, without load! Apparently, stating that the output voltage is limited to 6 volts, the manufacturer meant the operation of the device under load.

So, rotate the Dynamo machine handle and watch the phone display. Since the phone lay down for an hour, as was the above, after shutdown due to the discharge of the battery, the charging process indicator does not turn on immediately. It is natural that longer phone Sleeps in the off state with a discharged battery, the more you have to work the user before the process of recharging starts.

Therefore, I would recommend if there is such an opportunity, start recharging immediately after disconnecting the phone. But it's just a recommendation and let's still return to the operation of the device. And it really works. As for the dynamo handle required to recharge the frequency of the Dynamo handle, then in the case of the Nokia 8850 mobile phone, 1.7 turns per second (approximately 100 revolutions per minute). But for the full nutritional nutrition of other phones, there may be a slightly large frequency of rotation.

According to the manufacturer, the handle should be rotated with a frequency of 2-2.5 turns per second (120-150 revolutions per minute). Apparently, this statement is made with a "reserve", which, in general, is not so bad. But the approval of the same manufacturer that three minutes of such recharging of the phone is enough for three, or even five minutes telephone conversationMildly speaking is not correct. Judge for yourself - for the phone, this charger is simply a power source, just like his regular network block Nutrition or, for example, a car charger. If you want, you can independently carry out an experiment, - connect the phone with a discharged battery to a staff network adapter, Wait for the recharging process indicator on the phone display and then charge the battery for three minutes.

In the case of a test phone, that is, with Nokia 8850, three-minute recharge only enough for the phone to turn on, find a network, and make an attempt to establish a connection. Make an attempt means that the phone reported on what number he starts dialing, and immediately turned off, sometimes not even time to report on the full discharge of the battery. The phones with greater power consumption after three-minute recharging can turn off almost immediately after switching on, in the process of searching the network.

In general, it all depends on specific model mobile phone, but three minutes of rotation of the handle for normal subsequent work of the phone is clearly not enough (except as a clock, and that's not long time). However, this is not a reason for putting a cross on the charger under consideration. First, you can not be limited to three minutes of rotation of the dynamo handle, thereby extending the time to recharge the battery of the mobile phone. Secondly, for those who have no time to wait, there is another option to force the phone to function with the help of the same charger under consideration.

This version is not as comfortable as an ordinary talk on the phone with a charged battery, but in emergency cases And it is quite suitable. The meaning of this option is that the phone can be accepted right during the recharging of the battery. Of course, it will be not so easy to implement this without girlfriend, because when the number is set, and when the conversation itself has to be at the same time and keep the phone and rotate the Dynamo machine handle. Such a procedure is much more convenient to do it together when one person holds a mobile phone and carries out a challenge, and the other at that time holds a dynamo machine and rotates her handle. I think the majority will be according to the fact that it is not very comfortable.

In the appendage to this, the sound published by the Dynamo machine during operation can also be pretty disturbed during a telephone conversation. However, with all the disabilities described this option The use of the charger should not be discarded, because as I have already written, in emergency situations and it is quite suitable and most often much better than just a telephone with a discharged battery, which cannot be used.

The following is about to mention, so it's about the load on the dynamo car handle during the recharging of the mobile phone battery. This load is not uniform!

It is not difficult to guess what it depends on the load on the dynamo machine. In other words from the current consumed by the mobile phone at various points in time in the process of recharging the battery. This current can vary in fairly wide limits, and, therefore, the force required for rotation of the handle may vary from very insignificant, before, let's say, tangible. No, nothing supernatural from the user of the charger, of course, will not be required, but I think about such behavior of the Dynamo car, I think it was at least so that users would not be frightened by thinking that their charger was faulty.

As if completing the topic of recharging mobile phones batteries, I consider it proper to report that the charger is intended to recharging these batteries. Do not attempt to make a full charging cycle with it! The main reason why this should not be done is in the resource of the Dynamo machine.

Describing its design, I mentioned that gear gears are made of plastic and, accordingly, it should not be loaded with their work. Also, during the operation of the dynamo machine, it should not be applied too much effort when rotating the handle and significantly exceed the recommended frequency of its rotation. Increasing the frequency of rotation of the handle in no way affect the process of recharging the batteries, but it can significantly reduce the service life of gear gears.

Describing the set of the device under consideration, I briefly mentioned that it is multifunctional. What is his multifunctionality? And it is that in addition to the function of the energy source, the Dynamo Machine, which is included in the device kit can protrude not only as a source of energy to recharging the battery of a mobile phone, but also autonomously as a regular flashlight. It is for these purposes that the LED mounted in its housing.

Enjoy such a flashlight is very easy. It is enough just to rotate the dynamo car handle, while leaving the connector for connecting the extension cable free. That is, simply do not connect anything to the dynamo machine. In this case, when rotating the handle, the LED will light, and the device can perform the functions of the flashlight that does not require any batteries for its work. Practical experiments have shown that for complete luminescence of the LED, it is enough to rotate the handle with a frequency of about one and a half revolutions per second (83-90 revolutions per minute), which fully corresponds to the application of the manufacturer of the device printed on the package. In this case, no significant effort from the user will be required, the handle rotates very easily, since the LED does not have a serious load for the dynamo machine.

The rotation of the handle of the considered unit with a larger frequency will not bring any improvements, the LED will not shine brighten, since its voltage is controlled by the dynamo voltage stabilizer (similar to the process of recharging mobile phones batteries). It seems to be simple and clear, but personally, I still have one question of answering, which I think I will never wait. And not clear to me from what such considerations developers this device Decided to use a red glow LED as a light source? In warehouses, the surplus were formed by these LEDs and they were installed in the Dynamo machine? Or maybe it's a lantern for a hiking photo of the lab? But why then have not been mentioned anywhere? In any case, considering this charger as a flashlight, with regret you have to state that the efficiency of the red luminescence LED is extremely large.

However, it is not worth doing from this tragedy. I do not think that the function of the flashlight will be often in demand. If it is still very necessary, you can recommend independently replace the LED in the device. True, for this user will need at least elementary skills to work with the soldering iron.

What is the bigger?

At the very beginning of this material, I wondered - what is missing in the set of the device under consideration? It seems to be all that is needed to recharge a mobile phone available. There is a source of energy, a set of adapters for the most popular models of mobile phones, and an extension cable makes more comfortable operation of the device, there is also available. But let's talk in the following way - Well, if the user leaves one with one single mobile phone on the road. And if he is accompanied by someone like his wife (or husband, if the user is not male)? At the same time, it may be necessary to recharge two mobile phones and it is not necessary that they will be from one manufacturer.

But, in this case, the road can be taken more than one adapter, but two or more (if necessary). It seems that no problems exist, however, I want to note that until now the charger was considered almost only in terms of its functioning. But what about transportation? I think it is no longer difficult to guess what I'm clone, talking about some insufficiency of the kit under consideration.

Yes, the dynamo machine will not take much space, and, and, as I mentioned, it weighs not much. Extension cable and any necessary number of adapters, the more free of course will be buried on the journey. But, if you "lose" in a dynamo-car road bag, even with her small dimensions, it is quite difficult, then it is actually losing adapters for mobile phones. Because of its meager sizes, they can easily fall somewhere, and there will be much time on their search.

So what is missing in the package of the charger? Correctly, - some, for example, a rag, a bag-cover similar to the fact that they are supplied with some models of miniature laptop mice. And after all, it seems to be a trifle, but it would be useful and to the place it would be! After folding into such a bag, all components of the charger, the user would not have to puzzle themselves with any search, while the price of the device the bag is unlikely to influence any significantly. Of course, it is possible to make it yourself, but it would be much more pleasant if in this case the manufacturer of the charger took care of the convenience of the user.

conclusions

Well, it would seem not all in the considered charger perfectly. However, despite this, I believe that it is quite successful and deserves that attention to him. Of course, you can find other alternative solutions that perform the same functions as the considered charger. But, today, such an alternative is either much more expensive or more cumbersome and heavy, or will require a voltage sources for its work, which are known to have a limited supply of energy. The same device is very compact, relatively easy, and does not require anything to work, except for minor user efforts.

Of course, I would like to see in its set cover for transportation and perhaps even more adapters for connecting to more different models of mobile phones. But, even in the form in which the considered charger can be purchased today it is very attractive and can be very useful. So, potential buyers can be recommended to pay attention to it.

Monster among manual charging. What is attractive? This power. If you believe the manufacturer, it is very powerful and able to give up to 30 watts of electrical energy. Igor Belletsky presented an overview, and, according to his recognition, it does not even represent how 30 watts can be squeezed out of such a small box with a size of only 10 x 6 centimeters. Yes, she just fits in his hand. However, running forward, let's say that he managed to squeeze even 40 watts from her.

There are many similar chargers with one handle on the Internet. But all their power, as a rule, does not exceed 10 watts. With it in the kit there is a very serious set of wires. As they say, for all occasions. Well, for example, the most basic wire with a built-in voltage stabilizer. Pay attention to positions from 3 volts to 28 volts. The switch can be seamlessly set any position and charge your devices. According to checking a multimeter, everything is clear, even 0.5 volts in stock. Anything you need! She was bought in this Chinese store. Name: 30W 0-28V Hand Dynamo Hand Emergency Generator with DC Converter.

The wire branches up for another 4, where there is, USB, where you connect your phones, tablets, Power cans. All that requires 5 volts for charging. Still mini yusb and two plugs. One is suitable for a laptop, the second goes to the wire, which ends with two crocodiles. This is apparently so that batteries can be charged. More wiring, which is attached to charging and ends also with two crocodilets. They have stickers - red (plus) and black (minus). It is rare that now you will not meet everywhere.

Note how the wire is connected to charging. First, each has a metal plug. It can enter only one single position. There is a special groove that combines which you can insert in the charge plug. The wrath is screwed and pinches the plug. The wire itself enters the plug and adding at the entrance is clamped with small bolts.

Charging itself is made in a metal style. It is collected from 2 metal halves, a rubber gasket between them, which indicates that moisture-proof. The device holds in hand to a leash that is dragged and tightly holding a hand. A slight inconvenience is that the device completely covers with your fingers and will not work, as they will interfere with the rotation of the handle. But it's easy to get used to this. Ergonomics are rectangular, all edges are rounded, so it is quite convenient to keep, in principle.

Check power charging

For accurate measurement, we will apply an electronic wattmeter and variable resistance. Let's start with the phone. We connect it and on the stabilizer exhibit 5 volts. We start the rotation and the phone instantly "lights up" and depicts charging. Go to the wattmeter with resistance. Let's see how much watts we squeeze. We carry out the charge at the same pace and observe the wattmeter indicator. Voltage 5 volts, power 5 watts. Enough to charge any phone. Current 1 amp. This is an excellent result.

We connect the tablet. On the stabilizer the same 5 volts. We start rotation. 65%. It is written: comes from the network. What suggests that the current exceeds 0.5 amps. What we need. For the tablet, it will be necessary from 5 to 10 watts. Let's see what efforts will require to issue such power. Here they are desired 10 watts. How much can you turn in such a pace? It is pretty easy to do it. Presumably, for a well-trained person you can rotate handle for half an hour. The author of the roller, in his opinion, will last 10 minutes.

For a laptop about full nutrition, speech does not go, only about recharging. Really, this device is suitable for all gadgets. The author is most interested in whether it can squeeze out of the device declared 30 watts. Therefore, now we go to the most important experiment.

Crash test on the squeezing of maximum power from the charger

Peak power reached 40 watts! Resistance in seconds has fighters. He was impossible to take in hand. This suggests that this device is capable of issuing not only 30, but also 4o watts. It all depends on whether the input will be the appropriate physical force. Not even differing in great physical strength, the author of the review managed to show. For people who go hiking and are physically more developed, this device is just a find. They will be able to charge with his help and telephone, tablet, recharge the laptop. In the case of complete convergence from civilization, this is a very necessary thing. The author of the reviews is pleasantly surprised by the fact that the manufacturer did not deceive, honestly wrote the stated power. It turned out that you can even surpass it. The quality is appropriate. Perhaps it was copied with a military sample or was done with a competence for military orders. There is no competitor in its mass-duct characteristics.

It is interesting to see what inside the black box. There is a transmission gear mechanism. And what is he? Plastic gears or metal? It is very important. The most interesting, what is the generator? In cheaper models there are ordinary collector motors. For example, those that are on printers. Given the power, it should be impressive sizes. And here is just 4 centimeters. He just does not fit here. Therefore, presumably, there is some kind of tricky generator. Perhaps even on neodymium magnets. Separate video charging overlap. All items will be shown.

») Designed to charge rechargeable batteries different gadgets. Such batteries are used in phones, pocket computers, cameras, players, GPS navigators, etc. Also with the help of "Zhabka" you can "feed" tablets.

Why is it needed, such a "frog"? For example, it was broken or lost charger from a mobile phone. It is necessary to buy a new one, but it turned out that the phone model is already old - and the charging to it is simply not found. So, it will not be able to charge it. Do not throw out the same phone?

So for the need of "Zhabka". Just take the battery from the phone and insert into this "gown", observing all the pros and cons. If a red light is burning, it means that the battery flashes incorrectly if the green flashes - everything is fine and the battery, and if the green color is lit - the battery is charged. Very simple and convenient.

"Frog" is considered universal device: It can also be used for batteries from other gadgets - tablets or players. There are "Guards" that are connected via a USB connector, from a car network or from a regular room outlet. All of them are small in size, and they can be taken with them depending on which model is more convenient.

Pros and cons "Zhabki"

Mechanical charger "toad" is a rather strange device. On the one hand, it is positioned as a battery charger, and on the other hand, it cannot normally charge the battery - either spoils it with reload or not completely. Zabka gives a stable charge current, which is undoubtedly a plus, while there is a high voltage of the charge - and this is already a big minus.

Zabka saves in case the charger has been lost, and if the charging connector broke. "Frog" is very compact and easy, suitable for batteries of any size, easily connected. With it, you can also charge rechargeable batterywhich "out" is out of order and normal charging Can not charge it.

But "Zhabki" has a very big minus. The fact is that the charging controller is configured to the average parameters, and this "spoils" charging batteries. That is, it charges, but at the same time reduces the life of batteries.

It is worth such a device inexpensively, but here each decides for itself - to use this thing or not.

The charger is the device that charging the battery. How to choose it? What is it better? And what does the market offer us? All this is written below.

Types of charger for car batteries

There are existence on the market different types Memory for battery. Consider 8 options plus a common classification.

Pulse Charger for Car Battery

The pulse charger for the battery performs the charge of high frequencies. Instruments of this type miniature.

The following impulse memory options are distinguished:

Manual are charging devices requiring man management. You need to adjust the current strength, charging time and voltage.
Automatic - these are programmed chargers that define independent battery parameters. They are able to automatically adjust the entire charging process.
Semi-automatic or semi-automatic - these are charging performing part of the processes on the machine. Control the charge time will have to manually.

Pulse recharging ACB goes in three versions:

Charging with a permanent pulse current.
Filling with energy with a constant voltage.
Combining two above options.

Sometimes situations occur when the car must be started right now. The powerful impulse "memory" for the battery makes it the mode " Boost.».

At the time of purchase, pay attention to this. Via Busta Charging will occur in 5-10 minutes. To start the car, this is enough.

Preparation charger for car battery

It is required when you cannot catch the battery from the network. The main plus is no need to remove the battery from the machine. Starting after connection is not possible.

Starting device for battery

Allows you to start the engine in minutes!

The device is compact and easy to use! It is enough to connect the trigger crocodiles to the stamps of the battery. There will be current generation in the desired volume and the car will start.

Installation Charger for Car Battery

Allows you to charge the battery and start the car immediately after connecting to the network.

Three under the type of CPU for the battery:

Household are chargers that are used in the garage. Work from a network of 12 volts. There are 6 voltages on the market. We are also able to start a motorcycle.
Professional - these are devices in contact with the network of 12-24 volts.

Such devices are determined by the presence of thick wires.

Transformer Charger for Car Battery

The main key figure here is a transformer. His drawback is dimensions. The principle of operation consists in reducing the voltage on the principle of a conventional converter. That is, from high in low. In the charge of the battery, large charged currents take part.

Auto memory for a 12-volt battery is regulated by the program. Smart electronics will perform everything according to the correct algorithm and keeps the battery from various hazards.

This unit charges and cleans the battery from lead sulfate. Similar phenomenon call for desulfate. The device has protection against incorrect connection of wires and short-circuiting stamps. Due to the built-in controller, the optimal charging mode is selected.

Automatic zoom have 4 types of work:

ACB recharge mode. His stages: The first thing is charged to 14.6 volts with a stable current of 0.1 s (C is the battery capacity in Ah). Then there is a charge of 14.6 volts. This occurs until the moment until the current falls to 0.02 C. Then it is maintained by a stable voltage of 13.8 volts to reach 0.01. At the end occurs before charging the battery. If the voltage fell to 12.7 V, the above circuit is repeated.
Desulfation. Cycle of work: 5 seconds is charged with a current of 0.1 C. Then the 10-second discharge current is 0.01. This happens until the voltage battery is 14.6 volts. Then there is a normal charging.
Test battery. Such a mode makes it possible to find out how the power supply is strongly discharged. After a load of 0.01 s for 15 seconds, the voltage on contacts is measured.
Travel and Training Cycle Mode. There is a discharge acb to a voltage of 10.8 volts. Then the specified mode is turned on. After receiving data on the current and charging time, the system determines the battery capacity. Data will be displayed on the device display.

Typically allocate two types of automatic charger.

5-point memory

That's what it does:

Charges acb up to 80 percent!
Perform a full charge of reduced current
Prophylactically keeps the charge at the level of 95-100%
Eliminates sulfate on the plates
Do diagnose battery.

8 point automatic memory

The device has an eight step circuit cycle.

That is his work:

Due to the discharge, the plates are cleared.
The power source is tested for performance.
The battery is charged to 80% of the capacity.
It goes smooth to charge one hundred percent, with minimal current.
Checking how much the battery is holding charging.
Liquidation of all kinds of electrolyte bundle.
Supported at the maximum.
The preventive charge is carried out up to 95-100 percent!

Second classification of memory for batteries

Types of settings:

Manual - configure everything yourself.
Automatic - all you need already configured by a computer program.

On car battery charging scale

Car battery charging indicator are as follows:

Freight
LED
Digital

By connection type:

Connected from a regular network of 220 volts.
Connected to the cigarette lighter. This type is most convenient, as it has small dimensions and is portable.

By duration of charge car battery:

Slows - perform charging for a day.
Fast - fulfill the charge in 2-3 hours.
Conditioning. Typically, charging devices with such a speed are charged with an ACB for 1 hour.

What car battery charger is better

Choose the best difficult. All stubble work perfectly. Short review Popular models are presented below.

This type of charger is simple enough. There is nothing wisdom in it. It is simply worth a transformer with switching re-either re-winding outlets. On the housing, the switch is responsible to the unit 4A / 6A. In addition to the transformer, it has a diode bridge and measuring device ammeter.

This device is unpretentious. It can be left in cold, cheese garage. It is unlikely to break.

According to the manufacturer's assertments, this source is called up to work with ninety-ampered batteries. But in practice it is 65 amps maximum!

You should not use the charger to charge gel and AGM batteries. This is due to the fact that at the end of the charging, the stress level on the stamps can be about 15 volts. Such voltage is fraught with damage for these AKB.

Among other others, a similar charger stands out by its miniature. He is able to charge different batches. It has many charge options. Embedded sulfatization mode. Thanks to it, you can charge a completely zero power source!

The feature of the device is the presence of a "power supply". When automatically current is not reduced on the outputs, disconnecting when the charging process is completed, and supports a certain level of voltage on contacts.

How to choose a charging for the car?

Determine what parameters the power supply has. Especially tension I. rated current. Be careful, the new charger should give a current by 12-15% more than the rated current of the battery. The output voltage should be 12 V.
Select Price Range. How much will be ready to pay.
If the machine will go out of the garage during the cold season, it is better to take a start-charger.
Check for the BOOST button. The button makes it possible after a few minutes of charging to start the car engine. Such a mode is especially inquired in winter.

How to check the charger for a car battery?

In some cases, you might think that the junk is a ticket. But it's not always the case. Some chargers simply are not adapted to charge zero acb. It requires residual voltage.

A couple of things to pay attention to:

It is convinced that the charger is able to charge not only the battery of medium planning, but also fully discharged.
Check the fuses if there is such an opportunity.
If the charger voltage is below 13 volts or it hits much, it means that it is broken.
Attach any device for 12 volts to the charger stamps, such as a light bulb. If it burns, the charger is worker, if not, is broken.
Check the integrity of the wires and their mount. If the wire does not pass the current, then the reason is in it.

You can check the charger using these tips. If you are badly shaky in electronics, then it is best to attribute the instrument to the master to the service center.

How does the charger work for a car battery?

The process of charging the car battery is as follows. The charger converts a 220 volt network voltage to the battery charging. Further on the stamp of the battery through the wires, which comes from a powerful memory, a constant voltage is supplied. It can be pulsating or smoothed and exceeds the potential difference between the electrodes.

Thanks to this, the current flows inside the battery in the opposite direction. The oxygen molecule particles are "pushed" from cadmium and penetrate through the electrolyte layer at its own former place. This allows you to restore the container.

The chemical composition of the plates during charge and discharge is changing. The electrolyte is a certain environment where cations and anions pass. The speed at which the current passes in the Nutria battery affects the recovery rate of the properties of the plates and the charge rate.

Processes go quickly, it causes severe gases and heating. This can damage the valuable plates.

Small charging current lengthens the process of restoration of the container. Frequent use Slow charge increases the sulfate of the plates and reduces. In this regard, it is necessary to take into account the power of the charger and the load submitted to the battery.
