Battery Maintenance and Charging
Easy Locator Pro Battery
A 12V/8.7Ah Li-ion battery pack is shipped with the MALÅ Easy Locator Pro HDR Antenna and is the
recommended power source for the antenna. Under normal operating and handling conditions, this
battery is capable of up to 3.5 hours of continuous operation. MALÅ Easy Locator Pro HDR antenna will
automatically turn itself off when the battery voltage drops below 10V. A meter showing the remaining
battery capacity is displayed on the Controller.
Tip:
If storing the battery for long periods of time, discharge the battery to approximately 50%, this will
maximise the life of the battery. Use the battery level indicator on the Controller to estimate 50%, wait
until the indicator enters the yellow section, power down and remove the battery. This also applies to
the internal battery in the Controller.
