Hi all!
I’m using LM 317T constant current circuit (as in the data sheet) to charge my NEW 6V SLA battery.
The NEW battery I checked the voltage. It shows 6.2V.
1)When I use constant current circuit it shows 0 current when charging. Why is this?
The R1 I calculated 2.7 ohms. 1.25 / 450 = 2.7 ohms.
I used a 6V transformer to give the supply. The DC voltage showed 8.1V in the regulator.
Battery specifications
Capacity 6V / 4.5AH
Cycle use 7.25 – 7.45V
2)When I use constant current circuit will it charge all the time with the calculated current (450 mA) or will it decrease when the battery voltage increases?
Thanks
