The post narrates an automatic Battery Bank charger circuit with an automatic over charge cut-off feature for operating with an electric car. The idea was requested by Mr. George. Circuit Objectives and Requirements I’m George From Australia trying to convert small car into an electric car. The attached PDF show the configuration of lithium battery […]

Battery Backup Time Indicator Circuit
In this post I have explained a battery backup time indicator circuit for monitoring the battery power usage by the connected load and for estimating the approximate remaining backup time of the battery. The idea was requested by Mr. Mehran Manzoor. Circuit Objectives and Requirements I want a circuit which shows remaining time of backup […]
Accumulators Explained [Rechargeable Batteries]
Unlike dry batteries, whose stored electrical energy can only be used once, accumulators have the immense advantage of reversibility, which translates into the possibility of a series of charge/discharge cycles. This means that they can undergo a series of charge/discharge cycles. They are found in applications that may require more power, such as starting the […]
What is T856-C Power Bank Module? How to Connect
So here we are talking about one small board called T856-C. We use this little module when we want to make one DIY power bank at home, like those we use to charge phones and other USB things. It can charge one 3.7V Li-ion battery like 18650 and also give us 5V output to run […]
Smart Buck-Boost MPPT Solar Charger Circuit for 12V 24V Battery
In this post we are going to learn how we can make one real working smart solar battery charger circuit which can do MPPT charging. We are using Arduino Nano as the brain for controlling everything. We will also use INA219 sensor module so that we can read the solar voltage and current properly. And […]
Using MOSFET Body Diodes to Charge Battery in Inverters
In this post I have explained how the internal body diodes of MOSFETs could be exploited for enabling the charging of battery through the same transformer which is being used as the inverter transformer. In this article we will investigate a full bridge inverter concept and learn how the in-built diodes of its 4 MOSFETs […]
