Battery charger - This project is not so important for those who ride a car every day. In my case, a car is not used every day. In that case, the voltage of a battery is falling and a car sometimes cannot be put into operation __ Designed by Seiichi Inoue
Battery Charger 110 to 12 volt Non-Isolated type - POSSIBLE SHOCK HAZZARD, A Good Simple Charger, BUT When Charging, This Circuit and the circuit it is connected to, MUST BE ISOLATED FROM THE USER. __ Designed by G.L. Chemelec
Battery Charger 12v SLA - Before we go into the operation of the SLA Battery Charger circuit, there are a number of points we need to cover about the care and use of Sealed Lead Acid batteries. Firstly, these batteries must be charged, discharged and stored very carefully. We normally think batteries can be stored for months (if not years) and they will be available for immediate use __ Designed by Collin MitchellBattery Charger Current & Voltage Regulated for Sealed Lead Acid types - Current and Voltage Regulated for Sealed Lead Acid types __ Designed by G.L.

Battery Charger Display Using LT1639 - The Over-the-Top type of operational amplifier is ideal for use as a current sense for battery charger applications. The design described here can be used with chargers for rechargeable batteries (Lead/acid or NiCd etc). The 5 V operating supply for the circuit is derived from the battery on charge. The circuit uses a sense resistor|

Battery Charger with Automatic Switch-Off - This smart charger automatically switches off when your rechargeable batteries reach the full charge. The circuit comprises a bistable multivibrator wired around timer IC 555. The bistable output is fed to an __ Electronics Projects for You
Battery Charger with LM317 - LM317 regulator is used to regulate the voltage and current for this circuit. This battery charger should be used only for Ni-Cad cells. Other type of batteries (li-ion, NiMH Lead and Li-ion polymer) needs special care so it cannot be used. __ Designed by Jose Pino
Battery Deep Discharge Saver - This circuit can be used to ensure that a 12V sealed lead-acid battery does not go into the condition of deep discharge. The circuit disconnects the battery from load when its __ Electronics Projects for You
Battery Equal Charge Indicator - The circuit below illuminates an LED to indicate unequal charges between two 12 volt lead batteries. It can be used to verify that two batteries are connected in parallel or isolated since the LED will be off when the voltages are equal within a tollerance, or on if the voltage difference is greater than 100 millivolts.

Build a High Speed NiCd Charger for Electric R/C - A few years back, I published a design for a Low Cost Thermal Peak Detection Charger. Since then, I've designed several other chargers, in my ongoing quest to avoid having to spend money. Of course, in building all these designs, I've probably spent more than a really good commercial charger would have cost me. But designing and building is half the fun __ Designed by Stefan Vorkoetter
Build a Simple Circuit Rechargeable CMOS
Battery - Occasionally we come across a computer motherboard that seems to eat those CR2032 batteries every 4 to 5 months. This is particularly frustrating because the computer works perfectly once booted but all the important BIOS settings are lost when the CR2032 battery fails. This is very irritating if the affected computer will not boot up with the default BIOS settings. I recently had a computer motherboard with this same irritating phenomenon. A test revealed that the current drain __ Designed by Radio Amateur Society of Norwich N1HFX

& NiCd Battery Charger - I’m always complaining about all the chargers and wall warts I need to carry with me when going on a trip. This project, which can charge a pair of AA Nickel Metal Hydride (NiMH
) or Nickel Cadmium (NiCd) cells using a laptop’s USB port for power, arose to address part of that problem. __ Contact: Stefan Vorketter
Build Your Own Solar Battery Charger - For this project I used 12 cells but you really only need 6. So if you are on a budget use 6 but if you want a fast charger use 12. Next lay out all your cells on your window to make sure everything is going to fit. I used the "deeper" side of the window so that there would be more room |
