Simplifying the Battery Charging
Problem.

Hooking up the proper connections
for charging a battery by the use OF
a battery charger is very simple
proposition for the average fan, but
when friend husband runs down to
the office in the morning and suddenly
remembers that he forgot to connect
the charg0r with the battery and cur
rent no amount of explaining over the
phone will make the wife understand
what connections should be made to
perform the necessary operation.
If, as is usually the case, the battery
has been run down to any considerable
extent radio reception for the evening
is "all off"
The idea of placing battery and
charger in some. out-of-the-way place,
all connected up with a suitable
switching system to make it possible
to switch the battery from charging
to the set, is rapidly gaining favor. If
properly connected all that is neces-
sary to perform the function of put
ting the battery on charge or switch
ing it to the set is a double-pole, dou-
ble-throw switch.
A diagram showing how this can be
done is shown below.
To simplify the explanation of the
functions of the various connections
each terminal has been numbered.

plug supplied with the charger. This
plug is plugged into the current or
house lighting source when the
charger is to be used
Terminals and of the charger are
the terminals that are connected with
the plug, so that they are automatical-
ly connected with the lighting mains
when the plug is inserted into cur
rent receptacle. No. 5 of the charger
is the terminal which should be CON
nected with the negative terminal of
the A battery and terminal 6 is the
terminal which should be connected
with the positive terminal of the A
battery when the charger is TO be
used to charge the battery These
negative and positive terminal mark,
ings are used only in the electrolytic
and vacuum tube type of chargers and
on some Of the vibrating reed types of
chargers. On chargers of the self
polarizing type the polarity is taken
care of automatically and no atten-
ton need be paid TO polarities.
Battery Terminals Explained.
Number is the positive terminal
of the A battery and number s is
the negative terminal of the battery.
Number g. Is the positive A battery
terminal of the set, while number 10
is the negative A battery terminal of
the set.
|, Numbers IL and IL are one set of
contacts of the double pole. double
throw switch: terminals 13 and II
are the blade terminals of the switch
while terminals Is and 16 are the
other set of terminals of the switch
To connect up the system, as
shown in the diagram. it is necessary
to cut one of the leads teither one)
of the current supply cord of the
charger. The end which is connected
with the plug should be connected
with terminal 13 of the switch, while
| the end of the cut cord, which is con-
netted with the charger, should be
connected with terminal Is of the
switch. -.---
The negative A battery terminal of
the set and the negative (in case of
self-polarizing chargers, either ter
minaD terminal Of the charger should
both be connected with the mega alive
terminal of the battery.
The other connections are self -eX-
planatory. No connection is made
with terminal II of the switch.
Connecting Charger.
When the switch is thrown to the
charge position so that a contact is
cStdDllSiieu belWee terminals Is and
l5 and another contact is established
between terminals IA and Is the cur
rent is turned on from the lighting
| mains through the charger (the plug.
of course, should be plugged into a
lighting receptacle) through the con-
tact established between terminals 13
and Is. AT the same time closing the
contact between terminals IA and l6
closes the circuit between the charger
and the battery. The battery is then
on charge.
When the switch is thrown in the
other direction the lighting circuit
and the charging circuit are auto
matically opened, while the connec-
ton established between terminals IL
: and IA closes the A battery circuit
I to the set terminals.
A good porcelain base double pole,
double-throw switch, obtainable at
any radio store, can be used. If the
switch is marked set" at one end
and Charge" at the other end and
the plug kept in the receptacle, all
| that is necessary to charge the bat
| terry or connect it with the set is a
simple throw of the switch to one
| side or the other.
