ABSTRACT OF THE DISCLOSURE This invention relates to a method for recharging a chargeable battery for a motor vehicle, a machine, a motor boat or the like. As the charging voltage there is used the output voltage from a charging generator which is connected to the battery, the output voltage being varied by controlling the field of the generator. The charging takes place by means of repeated charging cycles each of which consists of a charging period and a test period when the battery is loaded and the charging from the generator to the battery is disconnected. The value of the charging voltage during a charging period is determined on the basis of the test result during the immediately preceding test period. According to the invention the battery voltage is compared to a pre-determined voltage during each test period. If the comparison shows that the battery voltage is less than the pre-determined voltage or drops below this voltage during the test period, the charging of the battery during the following charging period takes place at a charging voltage which is sufficiently high that, by controlling the output voltage of the generator, there is rapid charging of the battery. If the comparison shows that the battery voltage is higher than the pre-determined voltage the charging during the following charging period takes place at a charging voltage which provides a compensating charging of the battery. During the later part of the charging period, just before the test period, the charging always takes place at a charging voltage corresponding to the compensating charge.
