(all LEDs will flash in an up-down sequence for two

2. The YELLOW ‘CHARGING’ LED will turn on and a trickle
current will be applied until a minimum voltage is
reached.
Once a minimum battery voltage of 2 volts per cell is
detected, the charger will enter the bulk charging con-
stant-current stage and the YELLOW ‘CHARGING’ LED
will remain on. The length of charge time will vary by
how large and how depleted the battery pack is, the
input voltage (the higher, the better), and ambient
temperatures (the lower, the better). If the input AC
