This next section details each of the charge cycles shown in the log file example above.
Charge Cycle 1, 2, 3:
Charge cycles 1, 2, and 3 do not appear on this log file because the USB flash drive they were written to has
been removed. It is also possible that no flash drive was present at the time of these charge cycles. The
charge count is stored in the internal memory of the charger, and will increment regardless of USB status.
Charge Cycle 4:
This battery was fully charged at the moment it was plugged in, the charger determined the battery was fully
charged and terminated the charge cycle after 15 minutes. The battery was not allowed any cool time.
Charge Cycle 5:
This battery charged for only one minute when AC power was lost. Based on the dead battery voltage of 271.7
and the Max DCV of 312.7, this battery was already fully charged. The stop pushbutton was pressed before AC
power returned, which prevented the charger from automatically resuming charge. Since the charger was
unable to complete the initial 15 minutes of charge, it could not determine that the battery is fully charged.
Charge Cycle 6:
This is normal recharge cycle for a mostly depleted battery. The battery charged for 8 hours 22 minutes before
the charge cycle was terminated by the charger, the charger returned 915 Amp-Hour to the battery. The
battery was allowed 20 hours 11 minutes of cool time before it was disconnected.
Charge Cycle 7:
This battery was fully charged at the moment it was plugged in, the charger determined the battery was fully
charged and terminated the charge cycle after 15 minutes.
Charge Cycles 8, 9, 10, 11:
The USB flash drive was removed after charge cycles 7. It is possible that no flash drive was present at the
time of these charge cycles, or these charge cycles have been written to another flash drive. The charge count
is stored in the internal memory of the charger, and will increment regardless of USB status.
Charge Cycle 12:
This is normal recharge cycle for a mostly depleted battery. The battery charged for 8 hours 20 minutes before
the charge cycle was terminated by the charger, the charger returned 919.6 Amp-Hour to the battery. The
battery was allowed 21 hours 50 minutes of cool time before it was disconnected.
Charge Cycle 13:
This is normal recharge cycle for a mostly depleted battery. AC Failure did occur during the charge cycle. The
charger automatically resumed charging upon return of AC power. The battery charged for 8 hours 37 minutes
before the charge cycle was terminated by the charger, the charger returned 966 Amp-Hour to the battery.
The battery was allowed 18 hours 12 minutes of cool time before it was disconnected.
Charge Cycle 14:
This is normal recharge cycle for a mostly depleted battery. The battery charged for 8 hours 5 minutes before
the charge cycle was terminated by the charger, the charger returned 883.1 Amp-Hour to the battery. The
battery was allowed 15 hours 11 minutes of cool time before it was disconnected.
Charge Cycle 15:
When the charge cycle was started the user initiated an equalize charge, which forces the charger to charge for
six hours once reaching finish rate. Since the battery charged for exactly 6 hour, it is likely that is was already
near full charge. The charger returned 154.4 Amp-Hour to the battery. The battery was allowed 3 hours 2
minutes of cool time before it was disconnected.
Charge Cycle 16:
This charge cycle was manually stopped using the charger stop switch. The re-charge time shows 0:00
because the charger had not yet completed a full minute of charging before being stopped.
