How do I do these calculations? Please help me. Dennis

Actualy looking at this circuit I think the battery will only discharge through resistrors R1, R2,and R3 becuase even when the triac alows power to flow back, it wont go beyond diode D1. That leaves the voltage devider alone connected to the battery for the purpose of sensing the the voltage levels. I strongly believe the dischrge current is very low and negligable. Thanks Dennis

Ohm's Law has the most basic rules for electrical circuits.
The rules define voltage, current, resistance and power.
Look in Google for many links that explain Ohm's Law.

Hello Mr. Administrator...

Can your Battery charger (automatic) can be modify to charge huge batteries (approx. 150AH- 200AH).


Thank you

Yes it can cause I modified it to give out up to 100Amps by paralleling 7 BT139 Triacs and they work fine. Dennis

Knowing Ohm's Law and being able to apply it is a basic essential to working in electronics.

You really should make an effort to understand it - it's not difficult. You cannot expect to go through life being spoon-fed.

I have made some sreaserch and I have discovered that Current= Volatge/Resitence and that this formular can be manipulated to get any un known. But I have failed to apply this formular to this charger circiut so that I can get values to R1,R2,R3 for 24V battery bank.

Also how does this charger discharge the battery when disconnected from the mains?

Try the local electronics store. Failing that, DigiKey.
