Why does my battery keep clicking on the relay?

Why does my battery keep clicking on the relay?

I suspect this is not happening. Either the battery has a bad cell (five charged cells and one dead one = ~10.5v battery) or it is simply not charging. The relay clicking should not ‘block’ charging, but with only a 2a charger, it may be consuming electricity as fast as the charger can supply.

Why is my cell phone charger not charging?

Either the battery has a bad cell (five charged cells and one dead one = ~10.5v battery) or it is simply not charging. The relay clicking should not ‘block’ charging, but with only a 2a charger, it may be consuming electricity as fast as the charger can supply. Again, remove the batt, then let it trickle until you’re reading a good bit over 12v.

What do you call an automatic charging relay?

Automatic Charging Relay (ACR): A Blue Sea Systems trade name for an electronic voltage triggered paralleling relay Voltage Sensing Relay (VSR): A generic term for an electronic voltage triggered paralleling relay Combiner: Another generic term for an electronic voltage triggered paralleling relay

What to do when relays don’t turn on?

The relays are latched off by default, if the relay is being enabled for the first time it is advised to restart the BMS to activate the relays. Methods to restart the BMS: The easiest way to reset the BMS is via the BMS utility. This can be accomplished by going to “File” -> “Restart BMS”.

Why do I have to charge both batteries at the same time?

The advanced technology always insures that the first battery is fully charged (13.4v) before connection is made to the second battery. This prevents problems that may result from your charging source being too low in amps to charge all batteries as once.

Can a lithium battery be charged while driving?

The most common application of this set up is for alternator charging. As you may be familiar with, to be able to successfully charge your lithium battery house bank while driving you will have to connect it to your alternator and starting battery setup.

How does a smart isolator battery charger work?

How it works: The smart isolator allows two batteries to be charged at the same time. When the engine is started and either battery reaches 13.4 volts, the relay engages, allowing two battery banks (start and accessory) to be charged simultaneously.
