TP-205V LITHIUM POLYMER BALANCER
1. After checking the battery condition, connect the battery power lead to the charger,
select charge rate according to battery capacity and battery condition (see previous
page)
User’s Guide
2. **Full charge alerts: Multi Tone beeps 6 times, repeats 2times for the first 30
seconds, “STATUS LED” solid on (you may unplug the battery for ready to use)
TP-205V advance balancing technology provides active balancing and safer charging for
your Li-Poly batteries, it is important to read the manual and use the balancer correctly
3. Over charge warning (Any cell voltage over 4.3V): Double beep continue and
“STATUS LED” flash (Stop charging immediately)
Use this balancer for 2 to 5 cell pack ONLY (for 6 to 10 cell pack, please use TP-210V
balancer)
4. Imbalance over 0.2V while charging: Cell LED(s) are flashing and beeping for 10sec,
this will be repeated every minute until conditions change(reduce charge rate to 0.3A
and carefully monitor charging condition)
<Charging with pulse charger (Astro 109)
1. Charge completion alerts may be activated during phase 3 (double beeps 6 times)
2. Verify the cell count setting, if correct, you may continue charging until charge finish
<Auto self Balancing>
1. Plug balancer connector to balancer- do not charge battery
2. Balancer will bleed/balance if balancing is needed (LEDs flashing)
<Precautions>
1. Do not connect 4 pin and 6 pin connectors at a same time
2. Do not connect 2 balancers to a single pack
3. Do not use in a vehicle
Features:
4. Do not use in direct sun light
5. Do not use when ambient temperature is extremely high
1. Auto cell detect for any 2 to 5 cells pack
6. Use and store in a dry environment
2. Check & display battery conditions ( LEDs)
7. Un-plug balancer from the Li-poly pack when not in use.
3. Low discharge warning (yellow LED flashing)
<Specifications>
4. Over voltage warning (continuous beeps)
1. 0.1% reference voltage controlled by micro-computer chip
5. Full charge alert (yellow status “on” + multi-tone)
2. Balance cells: 2 to 5 cells in series
6. Red LEDs display each cell in bleeding/balancing
3 Bleeding current: Max 420mA
7. Provided data port to interface to TP -1010C charger or other options
4 Deep discharge warning (3.6Vaverage)
5. Imbalance control voltage:+/- 0.005V
Auto Checking battery pack conditions:
6. Under voltage warning: 3.2V +/- 0.01V
1. Plug Li-poly Pack into the Balancer connector( 4 or 6 pins)
7. Over voltage warning: 4.3V
(Allows only one connector plug-in either 4pin or 6pins)
8. Full charge indicator: One or more cell 4.2V and all others within 0.01V
2. Wait 4-5 sec until the balancer
displays battery pack conditions as below:
9. Size:1.5” x 3.52” x 0.54”(38mm x 90mm x 14mm)
10. Auto self balance +/- 0.005V(cell voltage >4.1V/cell)
A:
Imbalance under 0.03V: yellow status LED “on”, red LED(s) “on” for 5 seconds
Proceed with normal charging
If yellow status LED “ flashes”, pack average voltage is below 3.6V
B:
Imbalance 0.03 to 0.2V: yellow status LED”off”, red LED(s) flash for 5 seconds
Charge at 0.3A to balance the pack or proceed carefully with 0.5C charge.
If yellow status LED ”flashes”, pack average voltage is below 3.6V
Proceed with normal charging
C:
Imbalance over 0.2V: yellow status LED “off”, red LED(s) flash for 60 seconds
Battery may require repair (Keep battery plug into the balancer for auto self
balance, do not charge battery until bleeding/balancing stop)
If imbalance remain >0.2V, balancer continues beeping every minute for 10 seconds.
If yellow status LED begins flashing, pack average voltage has dropped to below 3.6V
You may charge the battery at 0.3A and monitor charging for one hour, if the beeping stop
but bleeding continue, unplug the charger and balancer to retest the pack with balancer.
If beeping continue, you need professional help.
Additional audio alert:
Cell voltage below 3.2V, audio beeps for 5 seconds
11. Auto self balance +/- 0.015V(cell voltage <4.1V/cell)
