cuit that produces an extremely well-filtered d.c. output. Therefore it is able to power virtu-
ally any d.c. powered device (within the unit's rating) without the battery attached in-line (if,
for instance, the battery must be removed for any purpose and a.c. is still available). All but
the most sensitive d.c. powered electronic devices will function as normally as if powered by
a battery. In addition, the current limiting circuitry enables the charger to handle the high
start-up surges associated with inductive loads, such as d.c. motors in radar sets.
