Pb(lead-acid) battery program                                                                                                                               

This program is for charging Pb (lead-acid) batteries with nominal voltages from 2 to 36V

.

 Lead-acid, VRLA 

or  Gel  batteries  are  totally  different  from  NiCd  or  NiMH.  They  can  only  deliver  relatively  lower  current 
compared  to  their  capacity  and  charging  can  only  be  done  at  relatively  low  rates  compared  to  other 
chemistries. The optimal charge current 01.C. Pb batteries must not be charged rapidly. Always follow the 
instructions supplied by the battery manufacturer.
