Cell voltage equalizer includes voltage detection ICs configured to measure output voltages from cells, respectively; discharge circuits (40) provided to the respective cells, and configured to discharge the output voltages from the respective cells; and a main microcomputer (33 configured: to find a state of charge of a rechargeable battery (13) on the basis of the output voltages from the cells measured by the voltage detection ICs; to judge whether or not the state of charge is a predetermined level; to find differential values by subtracting a predetermined baseline voltage from the output voltages from the cells measured by the voltage detection ICs; and to equalize the output voltages if there exists a cell whose differential value is not less than a first voltage threshold value, by use of the corresponding discharge circuit (40) . In a case where the state of charge is not the predetermined level, the main microcomputer (33) performs the equalizing process after a first waiting time has passed since the previous equalizing process. In a case where the state of charge is the predetermined level, the main microcomputer (33) performs the equalizing process after a second waiting time has passed since the previous equalizing process.
