Where to Connect the Motorcycle Battery Charger Clamps?
1 Answers
The red clamp of the motorcycle battery charger should be connected to the positive terminal of the battery, and the black clamp should be connected to the negative terminal. Initial Charging: Initial charging has a significant impact on the lifespan and charge capacity of the battery. Insufficient charging will result in low charge capacity and a shortened lifespan, while overcharging, although improving electrical performance, will also reduce the battery's lifespan. Therefore, new batteries should be charged with caution during the initial charging process. Supplemental Charging: Some drivers often neglect supplemental charging for in-use batteries. Due to incomplete charging on the vehicle, it is easy to cause sulfation of the battery plates. An imbalance between charging and discharging can occur during use. If discharging exceeds charging, the battery will remain in a state of undercharge for a long time, leading to gradual sulfation of the battery plates. This will continuously reduce the battery's charge capacity until it becomes too weak to start the engine, significantly shortening the battery's lifespan.
