Abstract: The battery charger comprises a power factor correcting and voltage regulating apparatus having an inductor through which current is modulated by a modulator to obtain an efficient regulation and an efficient power factor correction. According to a first embodiment, the modulator comprises two rectifying elements connected to two controllable high frequency bidirectional switch elements. According to a second embodiment, the modulator comprises a rectifying element connected to a controllable high frequency switch. According to a third embodiment, an efficient battery charger is provided. It comprises an inverter including four controllable high frequency bidirectional switch elements connected in a bridge configuration. According to a fourth embodiment, a two-part battery charger is provided. It has an indicator for indicating quality of the coupling between the two parts thereof. According to a fifth embodiment, a two-part battery charger is provided. It has the necessary means for detecting the voltage delivered at the terminals of the battery and using it for controlling its operation.
