Looking at a typical LCD display during charging:
FAST CHARGE 1:23:45
15.5V 25C 5.0A 350KJ
where
• 1:23:45 = elapsed time since charging began
• 15.5V = output of battery pack in Volts
• 25C = temperature of battery pack in °C
• 5.0A = current being delivered to battery pack at this moment in Amps
• 350KJ = energy added to battery pack by charger during this charge in
Kilo-Joules
At the end of the charge, the display shows
BATTERY FULL and the bottom
line shows the total energy added to the battery pack during the charge.
Looking at a typical LCD display during discharge:
DISCHARGE 1:03:45
12.2V 25C 6.0A 350KJ
where
• 1:03:45 = elapsed time since discharge began
• 12.2V = output of battery pack in Volts
• 25C = temperature of battery pack in °C
• 6.0A = current being removed from battery pack at this moment in Amps
• 350KJ = energy removed from battery pack by charger during this
discharge in Kilo-Joules
At the end of the discharge, the display shows
EMPTY and the bottom line
shows the total energy removed from the battery pack during the discharge.
