The CE4 Tagger uses a rechargeable 3.7V Lithium Polymer cell battery.
The CE4 Tagger battery compartment is sealed to prevent moisture ingression and condensation which could
cause corrosion and or short circuits within the CE4 Tagger resulting in a possible malfunction or an unreliable CE4
Tagger. The CE4 Tagger is tested to an IP 57 rating.
• Connect the USB cable between the mini USB port on the CE4
Tagger and a Personal Computer or use a DetNet Universal
charger to charge the CE4 Tagger.
• The CE4 Tagger will automatically start charging as soon as
the USB connector port is plugged into a USB socket.
• A battery level indication will be displayed during charging.
The CE4 Tagger may not charge sufficiently if the CE4 Tagger is
connected to a weak charger or damaged USB port.
The charging circuit of the CE4 Tagger may require as much as 1A for
charging.
Wireless charging has been incorporated into the CE4 Tagger (version 4 and later) to allow the
unit to be charged using a commercially available authorised Qi wireless charging pad. (An
authorised Qi charger will display the Qi logo). This will allow the user to charge the Tagger
without the need for USB cables, and also ensures that the protective cover on the USB connector
remains closed and sealed in harsh environments.
The wireless charging receiver is situated on the rear of the Tagger. The receiver supports a power transfer of 5W
and can charge the Tagger with a current of 1A when ideal alignment, field coupling, and matching is achieved.
Note that the maximum supported power transfer rate is not guaranteed given the matching and alignment
requirements that may not always be met. Therefore, the Tagger may take longer to charge wirelessly than when
