New Lithium Batteries - Need New Battery Charger?
by David M.
Do you really have to have a lithium ion battery charger if you put lithium ion batteries in your EV? It's time to replace the batteries in my conversion, and I'm thinking of making the switch to lithium ion batteries. I paid good money for that charger, though, and it doesn't need replacing. Do I have to go and switch out my charger if the lithium batteries have the same voltage as the old batteries? Hi, David - No, you don't necessarily need a special charger. What you do need is a charger that is adaptable to a new set of battery requirements. Your lithium pack will have a BMS to interface with (no longer optional, as with your lead pack) and you'll need your charger to know when to slow down and when to stop charging. If you've paid for a high-end charger, contact the folks you bought it from and tell them what your situation is. They'll help you program your old charger to meet your new needs. Regards, Lynne |
