Battery Charge
The TL-88 is equipped with a Lithium Ion battery (also known as Li-ion or simply Lithium
battery). The main characteristics of these batteries are lightness, no memory effect
and high energetic capacity in a reduced size. The majority of the Lithium batteries
have more advantages than Ni-Mh batteries or the older and obsolete ones of Ni-Cad
(the cadmium is a very pollutant element), thought it is necessary to take some
cautions with the lithium batteries, therefore we recommend you to read attentively
the warnings indicated on the subject of lithium batteries in the paragraph located in
the pages 5, 6 and 7 of the CAUTIONS AND PRACTICAL ADVICES.

that the battery is totally flat, the full capacity can be reached in about 5 hours.
WARNING: It is not at all advisable to recharge the battery with another charger
than the original TLC-435 and don’t try to charge another battery different than
