Default Re: Power Drive Charger and Lithium Batterys ?

If it works like the ones I saw the added circuitry supplied controlled the charger on/off and capped the voltage to prevent damaging the lithium pack. Lithium is a totally different technology then the FLA type batteries and I am not even sure an OBC "could" charge those batteries without damaging them since its algorithm is specifically for bulk, saturation/finish charging flooded lead acid cells compared to the anode, cathode, ion technology of lithium.....

If he goes this way, just have him double check with the supplier because I know with the Volt setup we got it would work with any automatic charger but not Powerdrives without bypassing the OBC.
