are

 

not

 

recommended

 

for

 

powering

 

Power

 

LEDs

 

(1Watt

because

 

the

 

little

 

lower

 

battery

 

voltage

 

means

 

a

 

lower

 

brightness

 

of

 

LEDs.

 

 

The

be

 

programmed

 

at

After

 

programming,

Recommendation

 

Following

capacities

 

are

 

recommended

 

for

 

one

 

hour

 

operation

 

of

 

one

 

LED

 

on

 

each

 

of

 

the

 

six

 

outputs.

 

If

 

LEDs

 

are

 

operated

 

with

 

flash

 

sequences,

 

capacity

 

can

 

be

 

accordingly

 

smaller.
