What is a smart battery charger?

Mar 20, 2023   Pageview:363

Smart battery chargers are being in limelight for quite some time now. These charges are referred to as “smart” because they know how to smartly communicate with the BMS (battery management system) of smart batteries. Through this smart communication, smart chargers monitor as well as control the entire charging process. 

Smart chargers are equipped with microprocessors that enable them to interact r communicate with smart batteries. The microchips installed in these chargers enable them to understand the health, charging level, battery type, and other aspects of the battery. 

What is a smart car battery charger?

As the name suggests, smart car battery chargers are those chargers that are equipped with smart microprocessors to understand and charge car batteries. These chargers understand the battery type and needs of your car battery and seamlessly work to offer efficient charging service. Smart charger enables you to choose the appropriate energy level to offer to your car battery which can depend upon various factors. 

Smart car battery chargers not only help you to save money and precious time but also help to save natural depleting resources. It is an alternate way to power up your cars without relying on fossil fuel energy which causes pollution and is hazardous for humans and the environment. Smart car battery chargers offer a quicker, eco-friendly, and smart way to charge your car and hit the road to enjoy a seamless and power-packed journey. 

How to use a smart battery charger?

Each smart battery charger comes up with a user manual to offer you complete guidance on how to efficiently use the charger to make the most out of it. Though there might be some differences in steps to follow with differences in the types f smart battery chargers but let us walk you through the general guidelines of how to use a smart battery charger to charge your car battery.

Firstly, you should ideally remove the car battery. But if somehow it becomes very hard or impossible for you to disconnect it then you can charge the battery still inserted in the car, but it is advised to dismantle the battery from your car to charge it properly. To remove the battery, you need to start by disconnecting the negative terminal (black color cable) followed by the positive terminal (red color cable). Remember, this order is necessary to follow or else you are subject to the risk of getting an electric shock of severe nature. 

Afterward, Make sure that you don’t turn on the charger before plugging it into the car battery.

Connect the positive terminal of the charger to that of the battery (red color) followed by the negative terminal (black color) of the charger with that of the battery. Again, follow the order of terminals because it affects the flow of current and is not designed based on the favorite color scheme. You can use clamps to attach the terminals. 

Once the terminals are fixed, you need to plug-in the charger cable in an electric socket (preferably a wall socket instead of an extension wire)

Turn on the charger after arranging all this setup.

Smart chargers are usually automated to handle the charging process but also refer to the user manual just in case it requires you to configure any setting.

Once the battery is completely charged disconnect the plug from the electric socket.

Disconnect the terminals in reverse order which means disconnecting negative terminals followed by positive terminals. 

Attach the battery to your car and you are good to go. 

Remember a car battery takes up to 10 hours to fully charge and to charge a deep cycle battery, you might need a jump start first to revitalize the engine.

What is the difference between a smart battery charger and a normal battery charger?

A smart charger offers trickle charging like a normal battery charger. But along with this one similar function, it offers multiple different functions of reconditioning the car battery and car-specific charging modes. A normal battery charger just sticks to its general purpose of offering continuous charge to the battery while making sure that it isn’t heated or overloaded. Whereas, smart battery charger takes charging to a whole new level and is a more advanced and sophisticated form of the normal battery charger. 

Some worth mentioning and distinctive features of smart battery chargers include:

Recondition the battery: Unlike normal batteries, smart batteries help to recondition the battery to ensure recovery of its lost performance. It does this by eliminating the plate coatings formed on battery cells that lower the effectiveness of the battery and thereby restore the lost performance. 

Smart maintenance of battery: Smart chargers offer battery maintenance more efficiently in comparison to ordinary chargers. Smart chargers detect the battery type, adequate charging temperature, as well as other charging features to efficiently charge the battery. Basically smart charger understands the needs of smart batteries and offers them the perfect charging environment and parameters to ensure efficient results. Ordinary batteries cannot detect these in-depth measures and requirements before charging. 

Better safety measures: Smart chargers are automatic and spark-proof. They are equipped with protective measures like reverse polarity to save you from any potential damage (to both charger and battery) even if you attach the wrong clamps by mistake. Ordinary batteries lack this safety measure and you have to be extra careful while plugging in those batteries because a little mistake can damage your expensive battery and charger or both. 

Multi-stage charging: Unlike an ordinary battery, a smart charger undergoes from 3 to 9 stages to charge a battery effectively and efficiently. It helps to quickly charge the battery to the original capacity of the battery (100%). Ordinary batteries lack these stages involving desulphation and overall restoration of the battery. 

Longer useful life: With normal chargers, the useful life of a battery declines with time. Whereas, smart chargers can help to elevate the useful life of your battery by keeping in contact with the BMS of the battery to manage it properly and ensure it offers maximum performance.
