About the NOCO Genius G3500

Product Overview and Battery Compatibility

Learn about the advanced technology of the G3500, designed for various 12V lead-acid and lithium-ion batteries up to 120Ah.

Getting Started

Initial Battery Checks

Before charging, consult your battery's manual for specific precautions and to determine its voltage and chemistry.

Mounting the Charger

Mounting Guidelines and Cable Length

Mount the charger using #6 self-drill screws, minding obstructions and noting the DC cable length is approximately 75 inches.

Charging Modes Overview

Available Charging Modes

The G3500 features eight charging modes, some requiring a three-second press-and-hold to activate advanced functions.

Using 6V NORM Mode

6V NORM Mode Caution

This mode is for 6-volt lead-acid batteries only. Consult battery manufacturer before use.

Using 12V Lithium Mode

12V Lithium Mode Caution and BMS

Use this mode with care for 12V lithium-ion batteries. Consult manufacturer, especially regarding Battery Management Systems (BMS).

Using 12V Repair Mode

12V Repair Mode: Recovery Process

Advanced mode for repairing sulfated or damaged batteries; may take up to four hours and requires careful usage.

12V Repair Mode Caution

Caution: For 12V lead-acid only. High voltage may cause water loss in wet batteries or affect electronics. Disconnect battery first.

Connecting to the Battery

Connection Procedure and Polarity

Connect DC cables first, identify terminal polarity (+/-), and avoid connecting to fuel lines or thin metal parts.

Begin Charging Process

Initiating and Monitoring Charging

Verify battery, connections, and AC power. Select mode, observe LEDs, and confirm charging has started for maintenance.

Understanding Charge LEDs

Charge LED Indicators

Learn what the 25%, 50%, 75%, and 100% Charge LEDs indicate about the battery's state of charge.

Maintenance Green LED Indicator

The Maintenance Green LED indicates the battery is topped off and can be left connected indefinitely without overcharging.

Understanding Advanced Diagnostics

Error LED and Standby LED Flashing

Error conditions are indicated by the Error LED and Standby LED flashing back and forth, with flash counts denoting the issue.

Error Codes and Solutions

Interpret error codes like single flash (won't hold charge) or solid red error LED (reverse polarity) for quick solutions.

Product Features

List of Key Features

Details on Memory, Interactive, Recovery, Safe, Fast, Compensation, Rugged, Compact, Start-Stop, and Firewall features.

Additional Product Features

Advanced Product Features

Explore advanced features such as Optimization, Maintenance Plus, Energy Save, Load Tracking, Diagnostics, CANBUS, and Thermal Monitor.

Charging Steps

Analyze & Diagnose Steps

Steps 1 & 2 involve checking the battery's initial condition, voltage, state-of-charge, and health.

Recovery Step

Step 3 initiates the Recovery desulfation process for deeply discharged or sulfated batteries using pulsing current.

Initialize Step

Step 4 begins the charging process with a gentle, soft charge.

Bulk Charging Step

Step 5 initiates Bulk charging, returning 80% of the battery's capacity.

Absorption and Optimization Steps

Absorption Charging

Step 6 brings charge to 90% with small currents to limit gassing and prolong battery life.

Optimization Charging

Step 7 finalizes charging to maximum capacity, optimizing specific gravity for performance.

Maintenance Step

Continuous Monitoring and Maintenance

Step 8 continuously monitors the battery, restarting charging if voltage drops, to keep it at full charge safely.

Charging Times

Estimated Charging Time Factors

Charging time depends on battery size (Ah) and depth of discharge (DOD), with estimates provided for reference.

Technical Specifications

Input and Working Voltage

Specifies input voltage (110-120 VAC) and working voltage range (85-130 VAC) with 50-60Hz frequency.

Efficiency and Power Rating

Details the charger's efficiency (85% Approx.) and maximum power consumption (60W Max).

Charging Current and Voltage Detection

Covers charging currents (3.5A, 0.9A) and low-voltage detection thresholds (2V for 12V and 6V).

Battery Type and Chemistry Support

Lists supported battery types (6V & 12V) and chemistries (Wet, Gel, MF, CA, EFB, AGM & LIB) up to 120Ah.
