With the increasing number of electric bicycles, many hidden dangers of electric bicycles will be exposed. Of course, many are fire accidents. One of the causes of the fire is the incorrect charging method of the electric bicycle. Now let’s talk about how to charge the electric bicycle and how long it takes to charge it.
1、 How to charge an electric bicycle?
There are two main principles to be grasped: first, it is necessary to recharge from shallow sources. Second, do not overcharge.
2、 Why do we need shallow discharge and frequent recharge?
Lead sulfate is formed when the battery is discharged and reduced to sulfuric acid and lead when charging. If it is deeply discharged or not charged in time, lead sulfate cannot be reduced, resulting in the vulcanization of the plate. Therefore, you should ride every day, charge every day, and do not discharge deeply.
3、 What is the harm of long charging time
Too long charging time will consume too much water in the battery, accelerate the vulcanization process of the electrode plate, and gradually reduce the capacity of the battery due to lack of water until the battery is inflated and scrapped.
4、 What is the correct charging time?
The correct charging time is (6-8 hours), but it is better to extra charge for 1-2 hours after the green light is on, and then cut off the power supply. Electric bicycle chargers have no overcharge protection function. If the power supply cannot be cut off within 1-2 hours after the green light is on, the battery will continue to charge, decompose and evaporate the water in the battery.
5、 What are the main reasons for short battery life?
Charging is not timely and the charging time is too long.
Comprehensive above. Many people may think that this is not important, but we should pay attention to these so-called unimportant things in life, so don’t ignore some safety details in life!
Perhaps your inadvertent unsafe behavior will lead to irreparable disaster and loss!
