An automatic rechargeable battery control module incorporates an automatic battery control system that automatically switches from charge to discharge modes with a single relay, thereby preventing the need to manually reset a relay switch due to an over or under voltage situation. The module requires on a single power connection line connected with a single power connector on the module. Both input power to charge the battery and output power flow in and out of the single power connector and through the single power connection line. An automatic battery control circuit is coupled with a battery management system and a relay contactor is opened and closed by a signal from the battery management system. The battery management system monitors a state of charge of the battery unit as well as current flow to and from a battery unit.
