Minit-Charger’s Battery Interface and Charge Control (BICC) module performs two important and significantly different functions:

• Assess battery status and control charger output rates
• Record and store charger and battery performance and truck energy consumption.

Mounted atop the battery, BICC’s primary function is to perform as the battery to charger interface for Minit-Charger's patented charge control technology. The BICC module is mounted on top of the battery and accurately senses multiple groups of cells to gain a complete assessment of battery behavior. This patented and proven technology assures that the battery controls charger output according to the Battery Charge Acceptance Ability.

BICC’s secondary function – called Minit-Trak™ - is to record and store 20 key data items for each charge connect period. This stored data (indicated below) provides a detailed snapshot of each charge / discharge cycle complete with time/date stamp. The data stays resident for approximately 2 years and is available for laptop download. Evaluation of the Minit-Trak data table download can be subsequently imported to your favorite spreadsheet for further charge system, truck and fleet management evaluation.

BICC features include:

• On board battery charge controller; communicates with charger
• Senses multiple groups of cells
• Real time adjusts to changes in battery condition to optimize charge
• Checks battery health prior to charging
• Provides Battery Low Water Level alert
• Memory stores battery charge history and events
• Laptop download for Minit-Trak™ fleet performance analysis data

The BICC’s capability provides significant advantages over competitor battery modules (when and if they are even offered). Competitor devices typically provide only a data recording function and at level inferior to Minit-Charger’s BICC.
