i did what you said but nothing changes.expect the current went to 15V .i tried fully charged and empty batteries but charging dosent stop when battery is full. fully charged battery voltage was 12,8 V


I dont know what is wrong with it ,i have messed with this 2 weeks .

Biggest problem is that the charging dosent stop.I charged 1 empty battery wich was 11,8 v to 13V afther that battery started boiling.no charging switch off ???????

i was just wondering, i always thought the charger would have to be around 14V to charge a lead acid battery. but T is only 12V. how come?

The transformer is 12V RMS. its peak voltage is 17V which is reduced to 16V by the recifier. Its average voltage is a little less.

The circuit limits the charging current then the battery limits the voltage.

This is a lead acid battery charger.
There are no 9V lead acid batteries - they go in 2V increments.

Like I said. It's for charging lead acid batteries.
Lithium batteries are a totally different breed and need to have a very sophisticated charger.
So,no. You cannot charge a lithium battery wih it.

The led lights up when I first turn on the charger. When I connect the battery the led goes off.
The battery reads around 12.9 volts when I first turn on the charger and then increases to around 14.4 volts.
The voltage will then slowly drop. I turned off the charger when the battery read around 13.8 volts.
The led never comes on when the battery is connected.
What could be the problem?

Thanks for any help.
Eddie

I set the pot to midway and then turned on the charger. The led lit up and then it went off when I connected a battery.
I measured the battery and when it read 13.8 volts I turned the pot. The led would not light up. I turned the pot both ways.
