Hello All,

Totally new to hybrid car world,,so a 'dumb' newbie question.
I do not see any sort of grid charger available for the HCH III. Maybe due to the HCH III being lithium batts?
Am probably missing something here. Would like to get the new to us 2013 Civic setup for grid charger capability.

Thanks

 

Grid charging as a concept only applies to NiMH chemistry. If one were to grid charge a Lithium battery via the same process, the resulting fire would likely destroy the car.

Lithium batteries are managed and balanced via the BMS at the CELL level. Traditional grid charging can never apply to Lithium chemistry.
