The subject matter of the article is the lead-acid batteries carrier and management. The goal of the study is to develop a methodology for the technical condition monitoring of starter batteries in the process of their life cycle based on the use of modern information technology. The tasks to be solved are: to carry out a comparative analysis of Battery Care and Battery Management procedures and to determine the technical condition of starter batteries used on native wheeled and tracked vehicles, and to determine the key characteristics of battery monitoring during their life cycle; to determine the method of GB diagnostics for the implementation of dynamic monitoring of its technical condition during the life cycle in accordance with the procedures for battery care and management; to determine the general view of the functional diagram of the battery tracker ‒ a software and hardware device capable of caring for the battery and managing it; to provide suggestions for improving the efficiency of battery maintenance using battery trackers. General scientific and special methods of scientific knowledge are used. The following results are obtained. The suggested methodology makes it easy to determine, by comparing the data obtained at different times, in which batteries the degradation has just begun, and in which they have reached the level at which they need to be replaced without a fatal malfunction. Monitoring of the technical condition of the batteries using battery trackers implement the procedure for care and management of batteries, makes it possible to optimize the 12ST-85P battery maintenance schedule and come from the scheduled-interval maintenance system to the maintenance with parameter control. Conclusions. The development of battery trackers, hardware and software applications capable of battery care and battery management, can be seen as a promising area for the development of battery management. Proper care of the battery and charging equipment, proper operation and timely monitoring of the battery’s lifetime are the most important factors in its operation. Only in this case, it is possible to achieve the best economic efficiency of the GB use and prolong their lifetime. Battery Care and Battery Management by the means of a GB-tracker allows to optimize the maintenance schedule of the 12ST-85P batteries and to come from a planned preventive maintenance system to a parameter-controlled maintenance system. In this way it is possible to increase the period and reduce the number of operations to be carried out during the maintenance of the GB.
