PULSAR 2
v 2.15
PULSAR 2
is a fast, microcontroller-based charger suitable for use with various types of batteries. Special design of
hardware and software makes it possible to charge batteries with high currents without risk of damage and in some
cases even improving their durability. During charging process all important parameters are displayed on LCD and
transmitted via serial port (RS232) to a desktop computer. Additional software allows visualization of changes in
voltage, current, voltage time derivative and temperature during whole charging process which allows user to
determine precisely status of batteries and decide whether they need conditioning or not. A data communication
between
Pulsar 2
and
Pulsar-EQUAL
Equalizer (Balancer) is possible and increases the safety of working with Li-Xx
packs.
