The unit is built-in with LED display for showing charger status:

Anderson Style Connector

The KA Smart charger comes fitted with and Anderson style connector and Anderson to Alligator clip adapter. 
This allows for direct charging into battery boxes or electrical systems that features and input / output style 
Anderson style connector

Temperature compensation

A sensor will automatically adjust the charging voltage if the temperature deviates from – 20°C to +45°C. A high 
temperature environment will lower the voltage and freezing condition is handled by higher voltage. A low 
temperature heightens the output voltage, and hot condition is handled by lower voltage.

Power supply mode

The KA smart charger has a power supply mode setting which has a constant voltage of 13.8V and current up 
to 5A, keep to provide power to computer system of modern car when replacing battery (Please don't reverse 
battery connection to avoid the damage on the charger). To place into power supply mode press the mode 
button until the LED illuminates. 

Voltage compensation

Because of some voltage drop in the cables, the actual voltage at the clamps of the battery can be lower than 
the charger output voltage. A special circuitry inside the unit will monitor the true input voltage to the battery and 
adjust the output voltage of the unit accordingly. This will maximize the charging efficiency.

Reverse-polarity protection

This unit offers reverse-polarity protection under charging modes, the RED LED will illuminate and the charging 
process will not start. If this happens, unplug immediately from mains, connect the red alligator clip to positive 
(+) battery post, and black alligator clip to negative (-) post, then plug into the mains power and the charging 
process will start.
