Abstract

<P>PROBLEM TO BE SOLVED: To provide a charging method which can make a control valve lead storage battery long in life without changing the structure of the control valve lead storage battery. <P>SOLUTION: The control valve lead storage battery is charged up to a fixed voltage by constant current. A constant voltage charging is carried out after the fixed voltage value is reached, and the charging is finished when the current value at the time of the constant voltage charge becomes smaller than a fixed value. And while the above fixed voltage value is set lower as the battery temperature of the control valve lead storage battery becomes higher, the current value, at which the charge ends, is controlled so that it may be lowered exponentially. <P>COPYRIGHT: (C)2003,JPO
