Battery Charging
Charging Process
This charger charges 5100 standard capacity Li-ion 2200mAh battery packs in four hours and extended
capacity 3300mAh packs in six hours. Each charging slot works independently of the other three. As
battery packs charge, the charging circuitry follows the two-step charging process (CC-CV) that is
recommended for Li-Ion batteries. The process monitors changes in temperature, current, and voltage.
Temperature
The four and six-hour charge time applies when batteries are charged within the recommended
temperature range of 50° to 95° F (10° to 35°C). Temperature has a significant effect on charging. For
best results, battery packs should be at room temperature before inserting in the charger.
When the battery temperature exceeds 40
°
C, the charger may exceed the stated four or six-hour
charge time. The charger stops charging if the battery temperature is greater than 40
°
C, but will
begin charging again when the battery temperature is less than 40
°
C.
Charging Batteries
1. Supply the charger with power.
2. Insert batteries into the appropriate slots.
The Status LED for each slot turns red to indicate that the battery is properly seated and has begun
a charge cycle.
3. When the Status LED turns green, the battery in the slot has completed charging.
