iCharger Synchronous Balance Charger/Discharger 106B+
Pre-charging a Lithium battery
If the battery is over-discharged and the voltage is too low then in the Normal charge or Fast charge modes
the
iCharger
will notify the user of pre-charging with a low current (100mA). This helps to increase the
battery voltage to the within the allowable range for normal charging. The user can set the pre-charging time
in the
Lithium Check time
screen
in the
User setup.
“Storage”
charge/discharge a Lithium battery
This mode is for charging/discharging a Lithium battery that is not to be used for an extended period. The
program determines whether to charge or discharge the battery based on the configured target voltage and
the measured initial voltage of the battery. The nominal target storage voltage depends on the type of Lithium
battery: 3.75V/cell for Lilo, 3.85V/cell for LiPo and 3.3V/cell for LiFe. If at the start the battery voltage exceeds
the target storage voltage the program will start to discharge rather than charge.
Storage of Lithium battery. 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/discharge 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
Start/Enter
for more than 3 seconds to start the next
process.

The number of cells you set and the processor detects. The left side of the
first line ‘R:xxSER‘ shows the number of cells detected by the
iCharger
and
the right side of the first line ‘S:xxSER‘ is the number of cells set by the user.
If the numbers are different you should make sure that the configured
number and the actual number for the battery are the same and then you
can start charging by pressing
Start/Enter
. If not, press
Batt type/Stop
to
go back to the previous screen and adjust the setting.
Lithium STORAGE charging mode. The screen shows the status during the
charging process. You can stop charging at any time by pressing
Batt
type/Stop
. Press
Inc
to display each cell‘s voltage (see the balance
voltage information) and press
Dec
to display the General Status
information.

The following screen is displayed when the charger detects the battery
voltage to be too low in the Normal charge or Fast charge modes.
Pre-charge lithium battery. Press

Status display. The left side of the first line shows the type of battery (LiPo,
Lilo or LiFe) and number of cells detected. In the middle is the pre-charge
current (100mA). On the right is the voltage of the battery pack. The second
line shows the charging progress with capacity charged (mAh) and charging
time. The charger will switch back to the configured charge mode when the
pre-charge time limit is reached. You can stop the pre-charging process at
any time by pressing the
Batt type/Stop
button.
