Instructions for use
When charging a Lithium battery, the charging current will
begin to drop as the battery reaches nominal voltage. By using
the FAST charge option, the reduction of power will not be as
great as it is with a standard charge. The benefit of this is a
reduced charge time. The drawback is that the pack will most
likely not charge to its full capacity.
When charging, the screen provides useful information like the
charge rate, number of cells being charged, battery voltage
and the amount of mAh, or capacity that the charger has put
into the pack being currently charged. Press Batt type/Stop to
stop the charging process at any time.
When a lithium battery sits unused, for long periods of time, it is best to give that pack a
STORAGE charge. This will charge the battery to a nominal storage voltage (3.75V for LiPo,
3.75V for Lilo, 3.80V for LiHV and 3.3V for LiFe per cell). Storage mode will automatically
determine if the battery needs to be charged or discharged to reach this level. The balance
plug of the battery must be plugged into the charger for a proper storage charge to take
place. Set the charge current and the battery voltage/cell count as you would any other
charge mode by pressing the START/ENTER button to select
the parameter you wish to change, and use the INCREASE/
DECREASE buttons to adjust the value. When you wish to
confirm your setting, press the START/ENTER button. To
initiate the storage charge, press and hold START/ENTER for 3
seconds, confirm the cell count selected is the same that the
charger is indicating and press the START/ENTER button to
begin charging.
Like a standard charge sequence, the value in the lower left
corner of the screen is the selected charge current, in the lower
right, the voltage of the pack that will be charged. To change
these values, press the START/ENTER key to cycle through the
adjustable settings. Use the increase/decrease buttons to change the values and use the
START/ENTER button to confirm the values set. When ready to FAST charge, press and hold
the START/ENTER button for 3 seconds to start the process. Note, when FAST charging, the
lower left corner of the screen will show “FAS” and not the selected charge current.
