Getting starting Charging DynaMic DynaMic contains the same re-chargeable built-in state-of-the-art lithium polymer battery with fast-charge capability as inspiro. The operating time of the battery is up to 10 hours depending on how much you speak into the microphone. A fully-discharged battery takes one hour for an 80% charge and two hours for a 100% charge. Use only the original Phonak charging unit for inspiro/DynaMic. To simultaneously charge your inspiro and DynaMic we recommend the twin charger.
We recommend you are fully charging the DynaMic. The battery cannot be overcharged. Battery status indication DynaMic provides as inspiro an automatic vibra alarm if the battery is low. Ca. 1 hour before the battery is empty: It needs to be charged within one hour. The LED indicates 3 orange flashes repeated every 60 seconds and the vibra alarm starts vibrating. Ca. 15 min before battery is empty: It needs to charge DynaMic immediately.
