After this charging is completed, the DC-DC down converter 3 is disconnected from the charger BC and the main storage battery 1. When the electric vehicle is left for a long time after the end of this charging, the amount of electricity stored in the auxiliary storage battery 2 is as shown in FIG.
As shown in, it gradually decreases due to self-discharge. Normally, the main storage battery 1 is configured by connecting a storage battery of the same type as the auxiliary storage battery 2 (for example, a lead storage battery) in multiple stages in series than the auxiliary storage battery 2, so that the rate of decrease in the amount of stored electricity due to self-discharge is the same for both. It is often a degree. However, while a high voltage load mainly consisting of an electric motor is kept in a completely stopped state, a low voltage load including a micro computer for control etc. is in a partial operating state for monitoring operation. Since power is consumed accordingly, the auxiliary storage battery 2 tends to have a larger rate of reduction in the amount of stored electricity than the main storage battery 1.
