Protection Circuit Module with LED Fuel Gauge For 12V NiMH/NiCd Battery Packs

This protection circuit is specially designed for 12V NiMH/NiCd Battery pack with upto a max of 5.0A discharging rate.  

  • Keep 12V  NiMH/NiCd Battery pack from over-discharge (10V)
  • No over-charge protection
    • Must use the correct voltage charger to properly charge the battery pack!
  • Max discharging /charge current <5.0A.
  • PCB will cutoff at 10V±0.3V to protect battery pack from over discharge
  • 5 LEDs display battery pack's voltage (press button to turn on LEDs indicators, it will turn off when you let go)
  • <10.5V±0.5V LED off
    10.5V±0.5V to 11.5V±0.5V LED1 (Red) on, must recharge battery ASAP
    11.5V±0.5V to 12.5V±0.5V LED1 (Red) and LED2 (Yellow) on, battery need recharging soon
    12.5V±0.5V to 13.5V±0.5V LED1 (Red), LED2 (Yellow) and LED3 (Green) on
    13.5V±0.5V to 14.5V±0.5V LED1 (Red), LED2 (Yellow), LED3 and LED 4 (Green) on
    >14.5V±0.5V LED1 (Red), LED2 (Yellow), LED3 , LED 4 and LED 5 (Green) on, 
    battery is fully charge
    NO LED - disconnect the load (device) and recharge the pack ASAP!!
  • To Reset the pcb:
    • Connect a 12V charger to "Reset" the PCB once the PCB is open when battery pack voltage drop below 10V±0.3V
    • If you have a multi-voltage charger, it might not "reset" the PCB, you can "reset" the PCB by:
      • Connect the charger directly to the Batt+ and Batt- of the PCB
    • If you cannot remove the load, then you can add an on/off switch like this to "reset" PCB and start charging:
      • battery-------->PCB------> switch --------->load
                       |
                       |—>charger

    Please connect battery pack with the circuit as specs.   Please click here to download specification with wiring diagram  

    Warning:

    • Misusing PCB may cause battery damage or explode.  We are not responsible for any damage caused by user.
    • Don't use this PCB with Li-Ion / LifePo4 battery pack
    • Must charge battery up to 12VDC minimum
    • Must disconnect load from PCB to "Reset" PCB before charging
    • Since this PCB does not have over-charge protection function, must use our 12.0V NiMH/NiCd smart charger to recharge 12V battery pack.
