Abstract

A switch is provided for manually actuating the second charger. A timer times the second charger cycle. The timer is used to initiate the discontinuation of operation of the second charger. When the second charger is operating, the timer is inhibited from being reset. When the first charger discontinues supplying a charging current, the battery charger is conditioned to again permit actuation of the switch to reset the timer and allow operation of the second charger.
