What is the capacity of my battery?

The unit used to describe battery capacity is an Ampere-hour (Ah). This is a measure of how long a continuous current can be supplied before completely draining the battery of useful energy. There should be an indication on the battery that gives an Ah value. The most common discharge rates are 20h, 8h and 1h.
Example: A 20Ah battery can supply 1A for 20h.

What is energy density?

It is the amount of energy than can be stored in a volume or mass. Therefore, there are two ways to write this.
Volumetric energy density is how much energy can be stored in a volume. The units are Watt-hours per litre (Wh/l).
Gravimetric energy density is the amount of energy that can be stored per unit mass. The units are Watt-hours per kilogram (Wh/kg).

At Pulsar Developments we always consider the usage environment and application for every battery charger and power supply that is ordered from us.

Whilst we have a broad portfolio of battery chargers and power solutions that can be used for a wide variety of applications, but they may not meet the exact specification for your application. They might not be fitted with suitable output connectors, AC heads and mains leads, or are not configured for the required use.

With an experienced technical team, Pulsar Developments work directly with OEM’s, EMS and procurement heads in almost every sector. Thanks to our knowledge of technology, manufacturing and international standards, we create plug-and-play battery chargers and power supplies that meet each customer’s exact needs.

At Pulsar Developments we use only high-performance parts and components

As an approved partner to many world-leading manufacturers, including Mascot, we use only high-performance parts and components to deliver robust, reliable, highly efficient battery-charger and power-supply solutions. As such, all modified and off-the-shelf units are engineered to last the life of the battery or power supply it is charging, while meeting worldwide safety standards, UL requirements and medical certifications.

These modifications may include:

Description	Example
Power output	Reconfiguring and modifying parameters of the specified voltage and ampage of the battery: Charge voltage Charge current Float voltage Charge termination current
Changing, adapting and modifying charge parameters	Reconfiguring charge parameters of a Nickel-Metal Hydride (NiMH) battery charger to meet the specific cell requirements, thus ensuring the battery is fully charged without over charging. To ensure the charge parameters meet the battery specifications, the programmable parameters include: dT/dt temperature rise gradient -dV sensitivity Start timer and override safety timer
Snap-lock connectors	Fitting and securing a variety of snap-lock connectors.
Output connectors	Pulsar Developments is experienced in fitting a wide range of output connectors including: cigar-plug, Binder, Anderson, XLR, cigar-plug, and many others. Once the connector required and the polarity is established, the output connector is then fitted to the product. All products are 100% tested before shipment.
Mains lead and AC plug head	Supplying either the AC plug head or mains lead - IEC 2 pin or IEC 3 pin - with a suitable plug for the intended country or region of use: UK; Europe; Australia; USA; South Africa.
Packaged solutions	Packing the product in a carton complete with all the accessories required to enable easy forward shipment to the end customer.
Warranty, design Life spans & approvals	Pulsar Developments customise and modify battery chargers and power supplies using only quality products. As an authorised distributor and the partner of global manufacturers, including Mascot, all modified and off-the-shelf units are engineered to last as long as the battery or power supply it is charging, while meeting worldwide safety standards, UL requirements and medical certifications. All products supplied through Pulsar Developments come with a 12-month warranty.
Customising units at the point of manufacture	Working with the manufacturer’s design engineers, Pulsar Developments can make the following customisations: Redesigning the housing to provide open frame solutions Ruggedizing and waterproofing the unit to IP67 Customising the charging regime of the power supply or battery charger to suit the battery being used. Customisation of standard battery chargers, such as: Modifying the charge parameters Fitting and moulding snap-lock connectors or an output connector Fitting the correct mains power lead and AC head for the intended country or region of use.
