CHARGING THE TX677 TWIN PACK
The TX677 Twin Pack is supplied with a dual desktop charger, 240V AC adaptor,
12V vehicle charger and a USB lead. Using the AC adaptor, the dual desktop
charger will charge two fully discharged 1600 mAh battery packs to full capacity in
around 4 hours.
If using the 12V vehicle charger with the dual desktop charger, two fully
discharged 1600 mAh battery packs can be charged to full capacity in around 8
hours (with radios switched o).
Note: When using the 12V vehicle charger to charge two radios via the dual
desktop charger, we recommend switching both radios o while charging to
ensure the batteries reach their full charge in the allotted 8 hour period. If one
or more radios remain switched on during the charging cycle the batteries will
achieve close to their full charge in the allotted time but the indicator LED may
not switch to green. This is due to the lower charge current available from the 12V
vehicle charger.
Both the AC charger and 12V vehicle charger can also be used to directly charge a
single TX677 radio in around 4 hours.
