ABSTRACT:
A multiple battery, multiple rate automatic switching battery charger is disclosed. Two or more batteries are charged sequentially in a multiple pocket battery chargers in order to maintain a low peak power consumption level. One battery pocket is assigned a priority so that a battery placed therein will be charged first at a fast rate of charge. Upon completion of the fast charge cycle, the priority battery can be trickle charged during the fast charge of the non-priority pocket battery.
