Rechargeable battery charger

Battery Chargers

A battery charger is designed to restore the depleted current in rechargeable batteries.

Charger Parameters

Battery chargers, depending on the application, can have different characteristics. In addition to the method of connection to the network, they can also have different slots for different types of batteries, as well as their number. Another characteristic is the maximum current they can supply during charging and different types of protection for reverse polarity or overcharging of the batteries.

When purchasing and using battery chargers, always use appropriate batteries for them with the Recarchable designation. Never use chargers with ordinary alkaline batteries.
