Tech Note | Stationary Battery Charging. Are You Doing it Right?

    Improve Battery Life and Reliability Through Better Charging Practices

    This tutorial Is all about battery charging. During the presenter’s 40 plus years working in the back-up power industry in various capacities, it became obvious that in many cases, batteries were not being properly charged, with various consequences. The proper charging techniques along with what happens when you don’t do it correctly, will be discussed. Treat your battery properly and not only will it be at full capacity when you need it, but you will also extend its life.
