The present invention aims to efficiently use all of a plurality of capacitors connected in series, and control a voltage held by a capacitor unit according to environmental temperature. A switch element inserted into a charging path leading to the capacitor unit, and a switch control part controlling the opening and closing of the switch element, are provided. The switch control part includes: a first voltage divider circuit that includes a pair of resistor elements, and that produces and outputs a voltage that is a fraction of the voltage held by the capacitor unit; and a comparison result output circuit that controls the opening and closing of the switch element based on the result of comparing a potential output from the first voltage divider circuit and a predetermined potential. The pair of resistor elements are different from each other in terms of temperature dependency of resistance values thereof.
