What Is a Vehicle Trickle Charger, and Should You Have One?
It gets cold here in Hanover. And our weather is a good reason to consider a trickle charger. But, what is a trickle charger? And what else is a good reason to have one?
A vehicle trickle charger is a device designed to keep the charge of a vehicle’s battery over an extended period without overcharging it. And unlike regular battery chargers, which deliver a high current for a quick charge, trickle chargers supply a low, consistent flow of electricity. So, when would this come in handy? And do you need this special devise?
To answer these questions, the experts at Meineke in Hanover examine how a trickle charger works and when you may need one.
How Does It Work?
Trickle chargers connect to your vehicle’s battery and keep it at its perfect charge level. And many models are even equipped with automatic shut-off features to prevent overcharging, protecting the battery from damage.
Should You Have One?
Maintaining this ideal charge level makes a trickle charger ideal for vehicles that are not driven regularly, such as classic cars, seasonal vehicles, or motorcycles. But, a trickle charger can also be a valuable tool if:
- You have a vehicle that sits idle for long periods.
- You live in a cold climate, like we have here in Hanover. Because our cold weather make batteries lose their charge faster.
- You want to extend the lifespan of your battery by maintaining consistent charge levels.
