Trickle charge

Latest updated: Sep 24, 2024

A continuous, long-duration, regulated low-current charging process used to compensate for self-discharge effects and maintain a battery in an approximate state of full charge.

Note: Trickle charging is used to offset self-discharge effects to keep the battery in an approximate state of full charge.
