Disclosed is a method for controlling efficient charge and discharge of a plurality of batteries. At the beginning of the discharge cycle, parallel discharge of the rechargeable batteries is performed until the batteries discharge to a predetermined percentage of total capacity. Following, serial discharge is performed with the secondary battery being fully discharged before the primary battery is discharged. Thus, the rechargeable batteries respectively are each at least partially discharged at start of charging. When charging commences, the rechargeable batteries are first charged serially until predetermined percentages of capacity are realized. The serial charging is performed with full constant current. Following, the batteries are charged in parallel utilizing a constant voltage whereby the current decreases as the respective capacities approach 100%. As a result, the plurality of batteries are charged more efficiently and in a shorter time than if charge individually or serially.
