WICKED SMART TIP
LOW BATTERY. If you have a severely discharged battery,
a battery that is below 9.0VDC, it could be the result of a
defective battery. Batteries that have been severely discharged
as a result of an accidental load should respond quickly when
current is applied to the battery, resulting in a sharp increase in
battery voltage.
WHEN NO LIGHTS COME ON WHEN THE BATTERY
CHARGER IS PLUGGED INTO AN ELECTRICAL OUTLET
• WEAK AC CONNECTION
Check if the AC outlet has power. If the AC outlet has no or limited
power, it could cause this condition. Plug a light into the AC outlet
to check if the outlet has power. If the light is extremely dim, this
could be the result of limited AC power. The battery charger is
designed for use at 70-130VAC. If there is no power or the power

happens, have the battery tested as it might be defective. To
restart charging, disconnect AC Power and then reconnect.
WICKED SMART FEATURE
ABNORMALITY PROTECTION. If the battery charger is in the
Bulk mode for more than 80 hours, the battery charger will go
into an ERROR condition. This feature prevents damage if the
battery is faulty.
WICKED SMART TIP
TESTING TO SEE IF CHARGER IS CHARGING
Before applying AC power to the charger, measure the battery
voltage with a digital voltmeter and write the value down. Plug
the battery charger into an electrical outlet. Wait at least thirty
(30) seconds and measure the battery voltage again with the
digital voltmeter. The battery voltage should be higher than the
previous value and slowly moving up.
