Settings
There are ten selectable charging and discharging current from 0.2A to 2.0A and
0.1A to 1.0A respectively. The charger also features four independent
temperature sensors using Maha's latest temperature rise detection algorithm in
addition to the usual peak temperature detection.
The unit can be
operated in a "basic" and "advanced" mode. In the basic mode, user merely needs
to insert the batteries with no further key press. The charger will select the
appropriate settings automatically, making it suitable for the casual users.
Summary
-
Charge, condition and analyze one to four AA or AAA batteries. Independent
operation of each slot.
-
Large backlit LCD.
-
Digitally displays capacity, voltage, time elapsed and current.
-
Adjustable charging rate from 0.2 to 2.0A and discharging rate from 0.1A to
1.0A.
Five modes of operation:
-
-- Charge: Charge the battery at the selected rate
-
-- Discharge: Discharge the battery at the selected rate.
-
-- Analyze & Refresh: First charge the battery at the selected rate, then
discharge it at the selected rate followed by recharging. The discharge
capacity is saved for display at the end of the cycle.
-
-- Break-In: Allows user to enter the battery capacity and performs a forming
charge at 0.1C for 16 hours (using only temperature and timer cutoff) followed
by discharge and medium rate recharge.
-
-- Cycle: Allows user to set charge and discharge rate and number of cycle to
perform. Will save capacity up to 12 cycles which user can access throughout
the cycling.
-
Negative delta V, peak voltage, dT/dt (temperature rise) and max
Temperature protection
-
Four independent thermocouples to manage battery temperature.
-
Quartz-oscillator time base for 1% repeatability in capacity calculations.
-
Trickle Charge - Around 10mA trickle charge rate when charging AA rechargable
batteries.
-
12V input and can be powered by an optional car adapter
-
Worldwide switching power supply.
-
Rugged construction with extensive ventilation for the batteries.
-
Built-in “lift rod” to raise the charger to improve air flow below the unit
