Battery pack (10) may include rechargeable battery cells (12). Battery
charger (20) may include power source circuit (100). Power source circuit
(100) may be connected with an external power source and battery cells
(12). The external power source may supply power to the power source
circuit and then, the power source circuit may supply charging current to
battery cells (12). Battery charger (20) may also include voltage
detector (32, 33) for detecting the voltage input from the external power
source to power source circuit (100). Battery charger (10) may further
include processor (40) for controlling power source circuit (32).
Processor (40) may determine the amount of charging current supplied to
battery cells (12) based upon the external power source voltage detected
by the voltage detector (32, 33).
