How to charge new energy vehicles without damaging the battery?

        1. Pay attention to the charging time.
          It is recommended to use slow charging for new energy vehicles. Charging with slow charging usually takes 8-10 hours, while fast charging can generally charge 80% of the power in half an hour and can be fully charged in 2 hours. However, the larger current and power of fast charging will have a greater impact on the battery pack. Charging too fast will also cause the battery to be empty, which will reduce the life of the power battery over time. Therefore, if time permits, it is recommended that you give priority to the slow charging method. Of course, slow charging should not be too long to avoid overcharging and causing the vehicle battery to heat up.

       

      1. Pay attention to the power when driving to avoid deep discharge.

      New energy vehicles will generally remind the owner when the remaining battery power is 20%-30%. If they continue to drive at this time, the battery will be deeply discharged, shortening the battery life. Therefore, when the remaining battery power is low, it is recommended that you charge it in time.

       

      1. When storing for a long time, do not let the battery lose power.

      If the vehicle is parked for a long period of time, do not let the battery drain. The battery is prone to sulfation when the battery is depleted. The lead sulfate crystals adhere to the plates, which will block the ion channels, causing insufficient charging and reducing the battery capacity. Therefore, new energy vehicles must be fully charged before being parked for a long time. It is recommended to charge them regularly to maintain the health of the battery.

       

      1. Prevent the charging plug from overheating.

      For plug-in charging new energy vehicles, firstly, keep the charging plug clean and dry to prevent rain, snow and melt water on the plug from flowing into the car body; secondly, when charging, the power plug or charger output plug becomes loose. , contact surface oxidation and other phenomena will cause the plug to heat up. If the heating time is too long, the plug will short circuit or have poor contact, damaging the charger and battery. So if there is a similar situation, everyone should replace the plug in time.
