The effect of fast charging and equalization on the reliability and ...
The effect of fast charging on the cycle life of lead-acid batteries used for e-rickshaw is demonstrated. • The average coulombic efficiency of 93 %, maximum top of charge voltage of 2.6 V, and temperature rise of 5-6 oC. • The predicted life of lead-acid batteries subjected to fast charging coupled with periodic equalizing charge is 1296 ...
