Abstract: A charger for a starting, lighting, and ignition (SLI) battery is provided. The charger includes a base unit having a pair of terminals that are adapted to engage a pair of conductive terminals coupled to a battery unit to electrically couple the base unit to the battery unit. The charger also includes charging circuitry having power conversion circuitry that is adapted to receive primary power and to convert the primary power to a battery power output compatible with a charging voltage of the battery unit.

Abstract: A system for placing a battery module in a sleep mode may include one or more sensors that monitor at least two properties associated with one or more batteries within the battery module that provides energy to a vehicle. The at least two properties may include two or more of: a state of charge, an input voltage, an input current, and a temperature. The system may also include a processor that receives measurements of the at least two properties from the one or more sensors, compares the measurements of the at least two properties to at least two respective thresholds, and places the battery module in the sleep mode when one of the measurements of the at least two properties is greater than a respective one of the at least two respective thresholds.
