Like a car battery, your generator battery needs to be charged from time to time to stay in good condition. As a rule, you should charge the battery each time you consume a quarter of its capacity.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">In this article, we will discuss how to charge the generator battery. We will see why it is important, how you can charge the battery, what options you have for battery chargers, and most importantly, some tips to make sure your generator battery always remains in the best running condition. Without much ado, let&#8217;s hit straight to our topic.<\/span><\/p>\n<hr \/>\n<h2><b>Why Is It Important to Charge a Generator Battery?<\/b><\/h2>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignleft wp-image-5738\" src=\"https:\/\/woodsybond.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/10\/champion-1607415760.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"450\" height=\"450\" srcset=\"https:\/\/woodsybond.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/10\/champion-1607415760.jpg 640w, https:\/\/woodsybond.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/10\/champion-1607415760-300x300.jpg 300w, https:\/\/woodsybond.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/10\/champion-1607415760-150x150.jpg 150w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 450px) 100vw, 450px\" \/>A battery is an integral part of your generator. It is often the most common cause of your generator failure.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">The main purpose of a battery in any generator is to provide it with the power to start.\u00a0 Though each type of generator has its configuration commonly, a battery not only provides it with a starting power but also:<\/span><\/p>\n<ul>\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400;\" aria-level=\"1\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Powers its digital control panel<\/span><\/li>\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400;\" aria-level=\"1\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Powers the small motors in the generator called the ancillary panes.<\/span><\/li>\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400;\" aria-level=\"1\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Provide backup power to any secondary battery set<\/span><\/li>\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400;\" aria-level=\"1\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Powers the automatic lever and vents<\/span><\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<hr \/>\n<h2><b>Types of Generator Batteries<\/b><\/h2>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Commercial generators use different types of batteries. A couple of them are listed below.<\/span><\/p>\n<ul>\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400;\" aria-level=\"1\"><b>Maintenance Free Batteries:<\/b><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"> These batteries have sealed electrolytes and cannot create fumes outside the battery like conventional batteries. These are modern batteries and last many years, but even these batteries need to be charged if not working properly.<\/span><\/li>\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400;\" aria-level=\"1\"><b>Conventional Batteries:<\/b><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"> These have individual cells for filling and testing electrolytes<\/span><\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Both kinds of batteries need to be charged and maintained to ensure the generator starts on demand. Most of the modern generators come with an installed charger to keep your battery running smoothly. However, some older units still need an automatic battery charger that can be used to charge batteries when their voltage drops below the minimum.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Here are a few ways to charge a generator battery.<\/span><\/p>\n<hr \/>\n<h2><strong>Battery With a Build-in Charging System<\/strong><\/h2>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">For generators that come with a manual charging system, you may need to activate the battery charger. These manual chargers have to turn off after completely charging the battery.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">The generator with an automatic charging system charges the battery on-demand, without manual intervention. These battery chargers have an automatic shutoff system that stops them from charging when the battery is fully charged. Their maintenance is much easier and requires less manual work.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">For old-school traditional batteries, you may require a battery charger or trickle charger. Both are used to provide a current to your batteries and work slightly differently.<\/span><\/p>\n<hr \/>\n<h2><strong>How to Tell When the Batteries Need to Be Charged?<\/strong><\/h2>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">All batteries lose their strength with time if not charged regularly. Even when you don&#8217;t use your generator regularly, you should charge its battery periodically.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">To know when your battery needs a recharge, you can use a digital voltmeter. It&#8217;s used to measure the voltage of the battery. If your battery measures below 12.4V, it needs to be recharged. You should check the voltage after a few months to prevent the battery from getting dead completely.<\/span><\/p>\n<hr \/>\n<h2><strong>What Types of Chargers Can Be Used?<\/strong><\/h2>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">To charge the generator battery, you need a battery charger. These are easily available, and one should always have them if your generator does not come with a charging capacity. The batteries can be dead even when left unused for a long time, and extremely cold conditions can also affect their performance.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Three types of battery chargers can be used to power up your generators.<\/span><\/p>\n<hr \/>\n<h2><b>Regular Battery Charger<\/b><\/h2>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignright wp-image-5739\" src=\"https:\/\/woodsybond.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/10\/Conventional-12-VDC-Automotive-Battery.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"450\" height=\"314\" srcset=\"https:\/\/woodsybond.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/10\/Conventional-12-VDC-Automotive-Battery.jpg 535w, https:\/\/woodsybond.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/10\/Conventional-12-VDC-Automotive-Battery-300x209.jpg 300w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 450px) 100vw, 450px\" \/>A regular battery charger is used to charge the battery quickly. It sends the voltage to the battery until turned off. A point to note here is that a quick recharge shortens the life of a battery. If you are charging the battery too fast, it can damage it, reducing its performance. Also, you need to be careful to turn off the charger once the battery is fully charged.<\/span><\/p>\n<hr \/>\n<h2><b>Trickle Charger<\/b><\/h2>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">A trickle charger charges the battery at a very low voltage. It takes longer to charge, but it does so safely. A trickle charger feeds the battery with a slow current, and this should also be disconnected once the battery is fully charged.<\/span><\/p>\n<hr \/>\n<h2><b>Maintenance Charger<\/b><\/h2>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">This type of charger is a smart charger that stays connected with the battery. It eliminates the manual intervention and charges the battery whenever its voltage drops. You can leave it with your generator battery unattended, and it turns on automatically when your battery needs a charge. It is safer this way as the battery is not overcharged and thus increases the lifespan of the generator battery.<\/span><\/p>\n<hr \/>\n<h2><strong>How to Charge Your Generator Battery (Step-by-Step)<\/strong><\/h2>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">To charge the battery with a charger, follow these simple steps.<\/span><\/p>\n<ul>\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400;\" aria-level=\"1\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Squeeze the clip and open the jaw of the battery charger cable<\/span><\/li>\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400;\" aria-level=\"1\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Connect the red or positive cable of the charger to the positive terminal of the battery make sure it is attached properly<\/span><\/li>\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400;\" aria-level=\"1\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Connect the negative cable, a black one, with the negative terminal<\/span><\/li>\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400;\" aria-level=\"1\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Turn on the voltage adjustment of the battery charger<\/span><\/li>\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400;\" aria-level=\"1\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Turn the power switch of the charger on<\/span><\/li>\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400;\" aria-level=\"1\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Watch the charger gauge to see how much battery is charged<\/span><\/li>\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400;\" aria-level=\"1\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Remove the charger once the battery is fully charged<\/span><\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<hr \/>\n<h2><b>Does the Generator Charge Its Own Battery?<\/b><\/h2>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignnone wp-image-5737 size-large\" src=\"https:\/\/woodsybond.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/10\/generator-1-e1633371498821-1024x399.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"1024\" height=\"399\" srcset=\"https:\/\/woodsybond.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/10\/generator-1-e1633371498821-1024x399.jpg 1024w, https:\/\/woodsybond.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/10\/generator-1-e1633371498821-300x117.jpg 300w, https:\/\/woodsybond.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/10\/generator-1-e1633371498821-768x300.jpg 768w, https:\/\/woodsybond.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/10\/generator-1-e1633371498821.jpg 1200w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 1024px) 100vw, 1024px\" \/>Yes, some generators charge the battery while they are running, but you cannot rely on it if you are using the generator occasionally. The generator must run for a specific time to fully charge the battery, but it will not keep the battery charged if you are not using the generator for longer periods.<\/span><\/p>\n<hr \/>\n<h2><b>Final Words<\/b><\/h2>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Even the low-maintenance generator batteries need to be changed occasionally. If you are not using the generator, the battery loses voltage due to discharge itself slowly. Whether your battery remain charged depends on factors like:<\/span><\/p>\n<ul>\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400;\" aria-level=\"1\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Usage frequency<\/span><\/li>\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400;\" aria-level=\"1\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Weather conditions<\/span><\/li>\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400;\" aria-level=\"1\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Usage duration<\/span><\/li>\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400;\" aria-level=\"1\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Battery age<\/span><\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Keeping your battery charged is essential for its life. If the battery is discharged past a certain point, it becomes completely dead, needing a replacement.<\/span><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>One of the many reasons your generator does not start can be a dead battery.
