Charging a Lithium battery in normal CHARGE mode 

The 

iCharger

 first charges with constant current (CC) according to the user setting then constant voltage (CV) 

when the charging voltage reaches the peak point. In the CV phase the current gradually falls. The

will terminate charging when the current falls below than 1/10 of the configured charge current.   

 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 

Fast charging a Lithium battery 

The 

iCharger

 first charges with constant current (CC) according to the user setting then constant voltage (CV) 

when the charging voltage reaches the peak point. In the CV phase the current gradually falls. The 

iCharger 

will terminate charging when the current falls below than 1/5 of the configured charge current. This will result 
in slightly less than 100% charge but will complete sooner than the Normal charge mode. 

The left side of the first line set the type of battery (LiPo, Lilo or LiFe). The 
value on the left side of second line sets the charge current and the value 
on the right side of second line sets the cell count and voltage of the battery 
pack. After setting the current and voltage, press

the numbers are different you should make sure that the configured number
