Type of Charger. For large industrial type batteries that contain liquid electrolyte, there are special devices that monitor charge levels and also monitor for overcharging. The BatteryMINDer is one of the best battery chargers for SLA batteries; however, other good brands include the Battery Tender, Auto Meter, and Power-Sonic. These chargers are designed for specific types of batteries, so it is important to use the right charger and be knowledgeable of maintenance and charging techniques.
Smaller electronic devices like digital camera, cell phones, and camcorder use very different charging and maintenance methods as well as very different batteries. The types of batteries in these devices will eventually need replacing; however, if they are properly charged and maintained they can last a very long time. It is important to follow manufacturers’ instructions for charging as methods can differ. Some may require complete run down of a battery before charging, while others do not.
Whatever type of equipment, it is important to protect the investment by using proper battery charging and maintenance methods.
