charging is widely used in cyclic applications where a recharge must
be accomplished in a relatively short time period. Constant voltage
charging, where a single voltage level is applied across the battery
terminals, is the most suitable method to recharge G E N E S I S p r o d-
ucts. Depending on the CV charger’s current limit, it is possible to
recharge these batteries from a 100% discharged condition to better
than 95% state of charge in less than one hour, using only the cyclic
charge voltage.
