Has anyone ever used a Ford Think battery charger on thier project? I just picked one up, but there’s a multipin connector where the battery leads should be. The manual shows which pins are power, but I just hope the other pins aren’t for some kind of charge controller or something… Which would make it a NON-stand-alone unit. Any thoughts? Thanks!

I have one of these that is faulty - the 1st 2 pins are for the 72 VDC charging current. The other pins are related to the battery temperature; the battery type; and to indicate that the chager is ‘ON’ - I.e. receiving 120 VAC power…

I will need to get a schematic to determine how to repair it. Basically there is a power regulation circuit and a logic circuit…  
Hope this helps…

Hi.  
I am using a electric vehicle and it charging cost is going out of my budget by every month so by searching a lot on internet i came through this website [Gnrgy - Energy Efficiency](http://www.gnrgy.com) , is this website really helps in saving power while charging electric vehicles?
