How to choose the right high-quality battery charger

16 January 2026

In the wake of climate change measures and regulations aimed at reducing emissions, a growing number of machines are being equipped with electric motors instead of combustion engines. This has led to an increased demand for powerful batteries and compatible battery chargers to extend their lifespan. But how can you choose the right high-quality charger for your specific needs? Find out in this blog from our expert power solutions brand, Energic Plus.

Why a high-quality charger is important

More than half of all battery issues are not related to the battery itself, but rather to inefficient charging methods or incompatibility between the charger and the battery. For instance, using the incorrect charger can significantly reduce battery life, leading to a higher demand for replacement batteries. Therefore, it is advisable to carefully consider your requirements and to always opt for a high-quality charger.

The right charger for your needs

There are two key factors to consider when selecting the right battery charger: the type of battery and the available budget.

Type of battery

First and foremost, it’s crucial to determine what batteries you need to charge, how often they need charging and how much time is available for a full charge. These three factors have a significant impact on which battery charger best meets your requirements.

Budget

While budget is important, it’s also crucial not to let it overly influence your decision and to carefully consider all possibilities. After all, investing in a decent charger, even if it’s more expensive, saves money in the long run. For example, although a charger with a high efficiency percentage comes at a higher price, it significantly improves battery compatibility and performance.

Recommended battery chargers

While the above aspects are the main factors in choosing the most suitable charger, we always recommend a high-frequency or traction battery charger. These chargers contain programmable printed circuit boards, enabling a customised approach. Some people opt for conventional chargers because they can repair these themselves. However, through our trusted brand Energic Plus, we offer comprehensive repair services for high-frequency and traction battery chargers.

In addition to repairs, our Energic Plus experts can also advise you on the most suitable battery charger for your needs. Our range includes industrial battery chargers of various types, such as high-frequency chargers ranging from 12V to 80V, and traction battery chargers up to 96V.
