BATTERY CONDITION INDICATOR
Your battery condition indicator (BCI) will give you a quick indication of your battery(s) state of
charge-condition. By properly using your BCI you can determine whether your battery needs
to be charged, is not holding its charge, or needs to be desulfated.
TESTING BATTERY
Press the area on the face of your BCI in raised area marked PUSH.
If all three (3) LEDs light (
RED
,
,
GREEN
) your battery is “good” = fully charged =
12.5 – 13.2 volts on 12 volt battery (25.0-26.4 volts on a 24 volt battery).
If only the
RED
and
LEDs light your battery is “fair” condition = 12.0-12.5 volts
on a 12 Volt battery (24.0-24.0 volts on a 24 volt battery).
If only the
RED
LED lights your battery is in “poor” condition = 11.5-12.0 volts on a 12
volt battery (23.0-24.0 volts on a 24 volt battery).
IMPORTANT NOTE: Fused lead (located on the positive lead of battery connector): ATC 3
blade type 15 Amp rated. DO NOT ATTEMPT TO BYPASS OR REPLACE WITH HIGHER RATED
FUSE; SERIOUS DAMAGE WILL OCCUR.

B a tteryM I N D er®
can charge, maintain, and desulfate any type size 12/24 Volt
non-aviation lead acid battery, regardless of construction or brand.
Q:
Can the Solar
B a tteryM I N D er®
be used to maintain and desulfate more than one
battery at a time?
A:
YES, but remember the limitation of the solar panel will determine how much current
output your Solar

can supply to the battery. Normally 2 parallel
connected medium sized (automotive type) batteries can be maintained if they are in
