Charging The Car Battery – Here’s How To Do It!
CHARGING THE CAR BATTERY – HERE’S HOW TO DO IT!
Frequent short trips, stop-and-start traffic, below zero temperatures and additional electrical loads have reduced the starting power of your battery. To avoid a battery failure, you should charge the battery in the spring and autumn at least. It is best to always combine external charging with changing the tyres. We will show you what to look out for when charging vehicle batteries.
Frequent journeys over a short distance, irregular driving profiles along with stop-and-start traffic, daily cold starts in the icy temperatures last winter, additional electrical consumers such as heated seats and parking or rear window heating have lowered the energy level of your battery start for start and journey for journey.
Treat your battery to an extra boost of external recharging now!
Which charger do I need to use?
As a general rule, fully automatic chargers (charging voltage limitation with 14.8V) are well suited for charging the battery installed in a vehicle. These charging devices are fully automatic. Depending on the battery capacity, we recommend the following chargers:
- For batteries up to 72 Ah – Banner Accucharger 12V 3A
- For batteries up to 130 Ah – Banner Accucharger 12V 6A Recovery
- For batteries up to 230 Ah – Banner Accucharger 12V 10A Recovery

Combustion engines require a nearly constant temperature level in order to ensure low-wear, low-emissions operation whilst maintaining efficiency. In addition to the thermostat, the thermal switch critically contributes to temperature regulation. When the appropriate engine operating temperature is reached, this component controls the fan for the cooling circuit to start up, for example. As with […]
