Battery Charger-Emergency Tool
As practice shows, car owners do not particularly pay attention to the car battery. However, it can be ignored only as long as it does not fail, and this is always unexpected and at the most inappropriate moment. It is believed that most often the discharge of the battery occurs in the cold season, but this is not quite so. The battery may sit down if the generator does not charge the battery during the trip, or you forgot to turn off the lights or the radio for a long time. The easiest, and most importantly, painless solution is to use a starting-charger for the car, or as it is often called-booster and jump starter.
This device is made with a built-in energy storage device, which allows you to give it away quickly to start the engine and start the car even with the battery completely dead.
There are a large number of various battery start-up devices on the automotive accessories market, but the type of battery used divides them into two types.
Starting boosters with a lead-acid battery. It is a rather bulky box with a battery of not very large capacity, but sufficient starting current.
Compact starting devices based on lithium batteries. This engineering find contains a lot of energy, but is lightweight and small. Such characteristics allow you to start the engine of the machine and avoid the hassle of storage and transportation. Interestingly, a stand-alone charger, with an adapter, can be used to charge smartphones and laptops.
Before you buy a booster, you should carefully study the technical characteristics of the model.
Starting Current-The larger the starting current, the more powerful the starter can spin. The standard model for 300-600A is suitable for work in cold weather and will be sufficient for a car with a motor capacity of up to 2 liters. Nevertheless, you should not be deceived by the huge numbers, as manufacturers can indicate that the indicator will last only 2-3 seconds, and the rated starting current will be two times less.
Rated voltage-6 V-for motorcycles; 12 V-for passenger cars; 24 V-for buses and trucks. They are popular models with 12/24V, which can serve various vehicles.
Built-in battery capacity-plays a minor role, but allows you to make more attempts to start the car.
Number of start-up cycles-We want to remind you that if after the fifth time you did not start the engine, then it’s not a matter of booster and you should look for a breakdown in the starter, engine, etc.
Manufacturers are trying to make life easier for motorists and complement the starting-charging device for the car with various useful functions, namely:
- Can be used as a charger for portable equipment;
- Availability of a compressor for pumping car tires and other items;
- Built-in flashlight with different modes of operation;
- Maintaining power for the removed battery;
- Battery voltage diagnostics at rest and in operation.
