About the G1100

Mounting the Charger

Charging Modes Overview

Standby Mode

Charger is not charging, energy save is active. An orange LED illuminates when selected.

12V NORM Mode

For 12V Wet Cell, Gel Cell, EF, MF, CA batteries. A white LED illuminates when selected.

12V COLD/AGM Mode

For 12V batteries below 50°F or AGM batteries. A blue LED illuminates when selected.

6V NORM Mode

For 6V Wet Cell, Gel Cell, EF, MF, CA batteries. A white LED illuminates when selected.

12V LITHIUM Mode

For 12V lithium-ion batteries including LiFePO4. A blue LED illuminates when selected.

Connecting to the Battery

Connect Positive Terminal

Connect the red battery clamp or eyelet to the positive terminal (POS,P,+).

Connect Negative Terminal

Connect the black battery clamp or eyelet to the negative terminal (NEG,N,-) or vehicle chassis.

Connect AC Power Plug

Plug the charger's AC power plug into a suitable electrical outlet after other connections are made.

Disconnecting the Charger

Disconnect in reverse sequence, negative first (or positive first for positive ground systems).

Begin Charging Process

Understanding Charge LEDs

25% Charge LED (Red)

Indicates battery is <25% charged (pulsing) or 25% charged (solid red).

50% Charge LED (Red)

Indicates battery is <50% charged (pulsing) or 50% charged (solid red).

75% Charge LED (Orange)

Indicates battery is <75% charged (pulsing) or 75% charged (solid orange).

100% Charge LED (Green)

Indicates battery is <100% charged (pulsing) or fully charged (solid green).

Maintenance Green LED

Indicates battery is in maintenance mode, fully charged and topped off.

Understanding Advanced Diagnostics

Single Flash Error

Battery will not hold a charge. Have battery checked by a professional.

Double Flash Error

Possible battery short. Have battery checked by a professional.

Triple Flash Error

Battery voltage too high for selected charge mode. Check battery and mode.

Error LED Solid Red

Reverse polarity. Reverse the battery connections.

Standby LED Solid Orange

Battery voltage too low. Jumpstart battery to raise voltage.

Key Features and Technologies

Memory Function

Returns to the last selected mode when the charger is restarted.

Interactive Charging

Alters the charging process based on organic battery feedback.

Recovery Mode

Applies high-voltage pulse charge for low-voltage, sulfation, or lost capacity.

Safe Operation

Protects against reverse polarity, sparks, overcharging, and overheating.

Fast Charging (2X)

Charges two times faster than traditional battery chargers.

AC Line Voltage Compensation

Adjusts for varying AC line voltage for consistent charging.

Rugged Design

Resistant to dirt, water, UV, impact, and crush.

Compact Design

High-frequency energy conversion for ultra-compact, lightweight charger.

Start-Stop Technology

Counteracts increased cyclic energy demands in micro-hybrid vehicles.

Firewall Safety Barrier

Multi-level safety barrier preventing abnormal and unsafe conditions.

Advanced Charging Features

Optimization

Stabilizes internal battery chemistry for increased performance and longevity.

Maintenance Plus

Keeps battery fully charged without overcharging, safe for indefinite connection.

Energy Save Mode

Minimizes energy consumption when full power is not needed.

Load Tracking

Charge LEDs dynamically track battery state-of-charge against load current.

Diagnostics Tool

Visual diagnostic tool for detecting reverse polarity, low-voltage, or damaged batteries.

CANBUS System Compatibility

Automatically enables charging port to charge CANBUS systems.

Thermal Monitor

Internal temperature sensors adjust charge based on ambient climate.

Charging Steps Explained

Step 1 & 2: Analyze & Diagnose

Checks battery's initial condition (voltage, SOC, health) to determine stability before charging.

Step 3: Recovery

Initializes desulfation process for discharged/sulfated batteries by pulsing small currents.

Step 4: Initialize

Starts the charging process with a gentle (soft) charge.

Step 5: Bulk

Begins bulk charging, returning 80% of the battery's capacity.

Step 6: Absorption

Brings charge level to 90% by delivering small currents; limits gassing, prolongs life.

Step 7: Optimization

Finalizes charging to maximum capacity, recaptures capacity, optimizes specific gravity.

Step 8: Maintenance

Continuously monitors battery, restarts maintenance cycle if voltage drops below threshold.
