charging in forklifts

Charging a BYD forklift is as easy as charging an electric car. Simply open the charger door on the side of the forklift and plug in the charging gun. An electronic “hand shake” between the charger and the port initiates power flow. An additional sensor prevents the truck from moving until the charger is fully disconnected.
