can a 16v charger. charge 12v batteries safely?


Recommended Posts

as the title says......

im trying to make a battery charger with this big ass transformer i have and its 120V input and 16v output.......could i do this or would it screw the battery up?

and no wouldnt be using just the transformer alone. ive seen a few write ups on how to build a charger just dont know what parts ill need yet. wanted to see if i could use this first

How many amps?

You could get a buck converter - it's a dc/dc stepdown-regulator

A 12v battery, a battery that rests 12.6 to 13.1 should NOT be charged over 14.8. Unless you realize/know what you are doing.

Why would you want to charge it with 16v for?

edit: unless there is something I'm not understanding..

im not trying to charge it at 16v i was wondering how to set it down to 14V. but i dont think i know enough about them to build one

You'll want to charge it at a constant amperage to between 14.2 and 14.4v. After that, hold the voltage constant and monitor the amperage.

The amperage will reach an asymptote of 0, and it is at that point you stop charging.

Is it 16.8v dc or ac?

Not trying to step on your toes here, but what is it you are trying to accomplish? It doesn't sound like you know very much about this and if all you want is a battery charger, it would be easier and cheaper to purchase one
