Maintenance Battery Pack
6.4 Battery Pack
6.4.1 Safety Guidelines
The battery pack is not accessible or replaceable. Do not attempt to remove the battery pack as
this will void the product warranty.
6.4.2 Battery Information
The Thermal Laser is powered by an internal rechargeable battery pack, and has a built in charger
that recharges the battery when connected to a power source. A fully charged battery pack can
provide up to 8 hours of continuous operation (@ 80% brightness and spotlight off). The battery
discharge rate will vary depending on overall use and settings. For example, using the LED
spotlight or a high level display brightness setting will accelerate battery discharge.
To prolong the life of your battery, turn off the Thermal Laser when not in use.
The Thermal Laser should be used within a short period of time (about 30 days) after charging to
prevent loss of capacity due to self-discharging.
If the battery pack no longer holds a charge, contact your sales representative.
6.4.3 Battery Charging
There are three modes of charging:
• Low Rate (approximate charge rate 100mA)
– Thermal Laser turned on
– USB cable connected to a powered PC USB jack
• Medium Rate (approximate charge rate 500mA)
– Thermal Laser turned off
– USB cable connected to a powered PC USB jack
• High Rate (approximate charge rate 960mA)
– Thermal Laser turned off
– Using supplied or compatible USB power supply adapter connected to AC power source
A protective cover is used over the USB jack, located on top of the Imager. Always keep the
protective cover closed during operation. Only open the protective cover during battery charging.
Opening the protective cover during operation could result in an electrostatic discharge event that
may cause the Thermal Laser to reset. If this occurs, the Thermal Laser will reset and return to
normal operation without being damaged.
