Recharging the Leisure Battery
The batteries are charged at a current equivalent to 0.1 times the capacity
expressed in Ampere hours (Ah) for a maximum of 15 hours. (12 - 13 hours
would normally be sufficient with a constant current charger, but 15
hours may be necessary with a taper charger.)
The duration of the recharge will depend on the extent of the discharge
that the battery has experienced. As an example the 50 Ah type RR1 battery
that has been utilised for 3 hours for lighting a 100W lamp would have
consumed 24.9 Ah and therefore must be charged at 5 Ampere for approximately
6 hours. |
