Consider the Fast Charge Option
Regarding the recharging the battery of a forklift, there is an old rule of thumb that goes something like this: use the battery for a shift of approximately 8 hours, charge it for 8 hours and afterward let it rest and cool for another 8 hours. This formula has changed for a lot of work applications that run more than one 8 hour shift. The fast charging choice has become a very common option to conventional charging and ever since its evolution; many businesses have chosen to make the switch.

What Are the Advantages of Fast Charging?

Less Charging Time
It can take a standard charger to charge a battery from 20% charged to 100% charged in approximately 8 hours. Fast charging can now accomplish this same charging in approximately an hour to an hour and 30 minutes! Lots of businesses use scheduled break and lunch times to complete this vital job.

Easier Refills
Frequently, fast charge batteries also need a single-point watering system. This system means that users do not require removing the battery from the forklift to be able to water it.

Temperature-Sensitive Design
These new fast charge batteries have a thermistor located next to the center cell in order to monitor temperature. Once the temperature gets to a particular level, the charge rate is reduced and occasionally even stopped in order to make sure the battery does not overheat. This method can unfortunately lead to an undercharged battery. There are several particular fast charge battery brands which utilize extra thick posts, copper inserts and inter-cell connectors so as to decrease heat generation and increase conductivity because of the higher current. These features help to enable the battery to accept a higher charge rate for a longer time period.

These equipment have seen their overall productivity increase greatly ever since the fast charge battery system was developed. Before, businesses used to require more than one machine when they were operating around the clock; nowadays they can save much money and utilize one lift truck twice as much in a day with by utilizing the fast charging batteries.
