Automatic charger with Arduino UNO:

The source code for the program made with Arduino UNO, through which you can charge battery connected 2 by 2 in parallel alternately, without having to be disconnected separately. You can download it from HERE.

//High Voltage Generator charger - www.kukata86.com
//This code turn relays 2 by 2 for 15 mins and make this cicle 60 times.Charge every 1 from 4 battery for 15 min and make pause for 45 mins.
//In this time charge another one batt. Total charge time for every battery 15 hours.
//See schematic in article for connection diagram.

// name your pins:
int edno = 2;
int dve = 3;
int tri = 4;
int chetiri = 5;
int pet = 6;
int shest = 7;
int sedem = 8;
int osem = 9;

// the setup routine runs once when you press reset:
void setup() { 
// initialize the digital pin as an output.
pinMode(edno, OUTPUT);
pinMode(dve, OUTPUT);
pinMode(tri, OUTPUT);
pinMode(chetiri, OUTPUT);
pinMode(pet, OUTPUT);
pinMode(shest, OUTPUT);
pinMode(sedem, OUTPUT);
pinMode(osem, OUTPUT);
}
int var = 0; //defines and sets initial value for variables used below

// the loop routine runs over and over again forever:
void loop() {

// sets initial value for pins so that lights start as "off"

Upgrades:

During testing process under real conditions was observed that the resistance of the water in a large pool is much more than that of a bucket of water. 20 A input fuses were not enough. Use 25-30 А as main fuse. After that i choose to upgrade the schematic.I make changes to control the IC generator and remove the relay which interrupt high voltage after the transformer. Photographs of tuning .

  Fails and Explosions:

 Use High Voltage fuses :)
