Chargers from various manufacturers generally have personalized needs, so do not replace chargers without confidence. If the mileage requirement is relatively long and multiple chargers must be equipped for remote charging, the charger that is recharged during the day should be replaced with a separate charger, while the original charger should be used at night. Removing the speed limit from the controller can increase the speed of some cars, but it will not only reduce the safety of the car, but also reduce the battery life.
2. Protect the charger.
The general user manual contains instructions on protecting the charger. Many users do not have the habit of reading the manual, and often only think of looking for the manual after the problem, which is often too late, so it is very necessary to read the manual first. In order to reduce costs, most current chargers have not been designed with high vibration resistance. Therefore, chargers should not be placed in the trunk and basket of electric bicycles. Under special circumstances, the charger must be moved and packed with foam plastic to prevent vibration. After many chargers undergo vibration, their internal potentiometers will drift, causing the entire parameter to drift, resulting in abnormal charging status. Another thing to note is to maintain ventilation during charging, otherwise it not only affects the lifespan of the charger, but also may cause thermal drift and affect the charging state. This will cause damage to the battery. So, protecting the charger is also very important.
3. Charge every day.
Even if your driving ability requirement is not long and can be used for 2 to 3 days with a single charge, it is still recommended that you charge it every day to keep the battery in a shallow cycling state and prolong its lifespan. Some early mobile phone users believed that it was best to charge the battery after it was basically used up, which is incorrect. The memory benefits of lead-acid batteries are not as strong. Frequent discharge has a significant impact on the battery life. Most chargers may have a battery charge of 97% to 99% after the indicator light changes to indicate full charge. Although only 1% to 3% of the battery is undercharged, the impact on the battery's ability to continue running can be almost ignored, it can also form an accumulation of undercharging. Therefore, after the battery is fully charged and the lamp is changed, it is still advisable to continue floating charging as much as possible, which is also beneficial for suppressing battery sulfurization.
4. Charge in a timely manner.
After the battery is discharged, the vulcanization process begins, and after 12 hours, there is a noticeable vulcanization. Timely charging can remove minor sulfurization. If not charged in a timely manner, these sulfurization crystals will accumulate and gradually form coarse crystals. General chargers are powerless against these coarse crystals, which will gradually lead to a decrease in battery capacity and shorten the battery's service life.
