The main objective of this car battery warmer circuit is to make sure that even in extremely low temperatures, the battery can be charged and discharged satisfactory. The design idea was requested by Mr. Elias, as I have explained below. Design Request and Specifications My plan is to control a silicone heat pad that runs […]

Use this Battery for 50 Years without Charging
A novel battery technology, developed by Beijing-based firm Betavolt, has been introduced. It boasts an astounding 50-year lifespan without the need for maintenance or charging. With 63 radioactive isotopes contained in a module the size of a penny, this ground-breaking nuclear battery is a leader in the field of atomic energy miniaturization. https://twitter.com/Byron_Wan/status/1746801325722239367/photo/1 Advancements in […]
Battery Low Voltage Alarm Circuit
Despite its simplicity, the Battery Low Voltage Alarm circuit has a very important function. It forewarns you of approaching battery failure so that you may run to the store and get replacement cells before your equipment stops functioning entirely. Because of its compact size and low current need, it may be integrated into the devices […]
Solar Battery Charger using LM339 Comparator
This small LM339 based solar battery charger setup is designed to optimize the charging of your battery using any solar panel while protecting it from accidental overloads. Considering the extended battery life it allows you to achieve, it is an investment that quickly pays for itself. Circuit Description Our setup is nothing more than a […]
Gel Cell Battery Charger Circuit [Constant Current, Constant Voltage]
In this post I have explained what are gel cell batteries and also learn how to build a specialized charger for charging a gel cell battery, with full calculations. The proposed circuit works in two modes: it starts charging a discharged gel cell battery with constant current, until the full charge voltage is reached across […]
3 LED Battery Level Indicator Circuit
The proposed 3 LED battery level indicator can be typically used for monitoring a 12 V lead acid battery charge level, through 3 distinct LED illumination. The entire circuit is built using just a couple of BJTs , a few zener diodes, resistors and LEDs. Different Ways to Check Battery Voltage A hydrometer is perhaps […]
