A Battery Tender® can charge lithium batteries with the right model, but it may not measure the State of Charge (SoC). Use a charger designed for lithium batteries to prevent damage. Traditional chargers can harm lithium batteries, particularly in 2018 and newer models. Always follow manufacturers’ recommendations for safe charging.
To ensure safety, it is essential to check if your Battery Tender model is rated for lithium use. Read the product specifications and instructions carefully, as they often specify compatibility. Additionally, it’s crucial to monitor the charging process, ensuring that the battery does not exceed its safe voltage level.
Best practices for charging lithium batteries with a Battery Tender include selecting the correct charging mode, avoiding overcharging, and maintaining a clean connection. Regular maintenance and proper care will extend the battery’s lifespan.
In the next section, we will explore different types of Battery Tender models that are explicitly designed for lithium batteries, their benefits, and how to choose the right one for your needs.
