A battery charge refers to the process of storing electrical energy within a rechargeable battery by forcing an electric current through it. The battery undergoes internal chemical reactions that store this energy in a chemical form.
Here's a breakdown of key aspects:
Charging Process: During charging, an external power source provides a voltage higher than the battery's voltage. This forces electrons to flow into the battery, reversing the discharge reaction.
Charge Rate: The rate at which a battery is charged is measured in 'C', where 1C is the current needed to fully charge a battery in one hour. Charging faster than recommended can damage the battery.
Charging Methods: There are various charging methods like constant current (CC), constant voltage (CV), and pulse charging, each suited for different battery chemistries.
Battery Chemistry: Different battery chemistries (e.g., lithium-ion, nickel-metal hydride) require specific charging profiles to optimize performance and lifespan.
Full Charge Indication: Batteries employ different indicators to signal that they are fully charged such as voltage level, current level and temperature.
Overcharging: Continuing to charge a battery after it's full can lead to overheating, damage, or even explosions. Modern chargers often have circuitry to prevent overcharging.
Trickle Charging: A low-current charge used to maintain a battery's full charge, especially when it's stored for extended periods.
