CHARGING THE ID-TAD
Important: Charge the new Battery Pack/ID-TAD for a minimum of 4 hours before
using!! Your Battery Pack is shipped with a 30% charge for safety reasons. The battery
pack should be fully charged prior to its first use. Failure to fully charge will prevent the
proper calibration of the battery level display icon. Note: Charging time may vary
depending on the computers USB port or charging source. A USB-1 port will charge
slower than a USB-3 port due to more current provided.
iD-TAD Battery Charging
To charge the ID-TAD, connect the supplied USB - C cable to the ID-TAD and into a USB
port on a computer.
Once the ID-TAD is initially plugged in for its first full charge, the battery indicator will
display a question mark (?) inside the middle of the battery icon. Do not unplug the
ID-TAD during this process to allow proper battery level read and or calibration. Also,
during this first full charge, you will not see an incremental level increase of the charging
process. As soon as the battery is fully charged, the question mark will disappear and the
battery icon will then display a full charge. This will take approximately 3-4 hours. If you
disconnect the battery from the ID-TAD at any point, the battery/ID-TAD will need to be
re-calibrated for a proper battery level read and may need to another 3-4 hours.
ID-TAD Charging Indicator ID-TAD Fully Charged Indicator
After the first full charge, the battery level icon will display incremental battery levels as
it discharges or charges back up during any successive charging sessions. The question
mark (?) will no longer appear during recharge sessions unless the battery has been
disconnected and reconnected even after a full charge. It will then have to remain
plugged in and charging for recalibration.
The ID-TAD can also function and be used without a battery pack if it is connected via
the USB-C cable to a computer. This scenario allows it to function if the battery fails, is
no longer functioning or you are waiting on a replacement battery pack. A battery icon
will not be displayed.
