Is it okay to charge a new energy vehicle overnight?
1 Answers
If the battery and charger are functioning normally, overnight charging is acceptable. Once the battery is fully charged, the charger will automatically switch to trickle charging mode (indicated by a green light). Under these circumstances, charging typically does not damage the battery. However, if the battery or charger has been used for an extended period and the charger fails to switch to the green light after full charge (remaining on red light), continued charging may cause the battery to swell or deform. In such cases, timed charging is recommended (remember to turn off the charger promptly). Below are precautions for charging new energy vehicles: 1. Charge when the battery indicator shows one-third remaining capacity. 2. Maintain a dry and tidy charging environment. Avoid wrapping the charger in plastic bags or bottles as poor ventilation may cause overheating and damage.
