1. Optional instrumentation included a tachometer and temperature, oil pressure, and charging voltage gauges. 2. If the charging voltage is low, suspect some charging system problem. 3. :The output of a battery has very little to do with the charging voltage . 4. :: : : My calculations were based on the assumption of constant charging voltage . 5. It extends battery life by increasing end-of-charge voltage . 6. The equalization charge voltage is 1.65 volts. 7. Charging voltage is much higher than discharge voltage, producing cycle energy efficiency as low as 50 %.8. Overcharging with high charging voltages generates oxygen and hydrogen gas by electrolysis of water, which is lost to the cell. 9. I designed a charger circuit with charging voltage of 5V and charging current of 240mA for 4 batteries in series. 10. At the maximum charging voltage of 100 kilo-volts, an output voltage of 2.4 million volts is produced and delivered into the load section.
