9.0 – Frequently Asked Questions:
Q.
How do I know if the battery is charged?
A.
The charger's FULLY CHARGED LED (Green LED) will
illuminate (stays ON). Alternatively use a digital multi-
meter set in DC range to measure the battery voltage, it
should show 13.2V for a fully charged battery.
Q
.
I have connected the charger properly but the
'CHARGING LED' does not come on.
A.
In some cases batteries can be flattened to the point
where they have very little or no voltage. This can occur if
a small amount of power is used for a long time, for
example a map reading light is left on for a week or more.
This Battery Conditioner and Charger is designed to charge
from as little as 2.0 Volts. If the voltage is lower than 2.0
Volts, use a pair of booster cables to connect between two
batteries to provide more than 2.0 Volts to the battery being
charged. The charger can then start to charge the battery
and the booster cables can be removed.
Q
.
Can the charger be used as a power supply?
A.
The charger is designed only to supply power to the
battery clips when they are connected correctly to a
battery. It also prevent sparks during connection to the
battery or if connected incorrectly by mistake.
This safety feature prevents the charger from being used
as a 'Power Supply'. There will be No Voltage present at
the clips until it is connected to the battery.
