Battery Profile Selection
Incorrect battery charging is the largest
preventable cause of premature battery failure.
Please see the Alchemi website for list of standard
charge algorithms and for more information.
The Alchemi A.I. charge algorithm is divided into
up to 5 phase sequences to put energy into the
battery correctly. Each phase can be terminated
by 1) voltage,2) current, or 3) a fixed duration. Every
phase has a variable timer to prevent “stuck”
phases where the charger does not shutdown.
An example 5-step rapid-charge Lithium profile is
demonstrated below using the Alchemi A.I. charge
algorithm.
