multiplied by the cell count is the pack capacity, but the voltage remains the same. It is
important to enter the correct parameters in order to prevent the risk of fire or explosions.
When setting the discharge parameter, it must be according to the residual capacity of the pack
to lower the voltage of the battery. To avoid over-discharging, please set the nominal discharge
correctly. The voltage of Lithium batteries must not be discharged lower than the minimum
voltage because this can lead to a rapid loss of capacity or a total failure. Generally there is no
need to discharge a Lithium battery.
Some batteries have a ‘memory’, in that if the capacity is only partially used the battery will
‘remember’ to just use the same amount in the future:
NiMH and NiCd batteries do have a memory function, but usually run complete cycles. This
means they are fully charged and then completely used.
Lithium batteries prefer a partial rather than full discharge. Frequent full discharge should
be avoided if possible. Instead you should charge the battery more often or keep the
nominal voltage.
This charger is not a domestic appliance. It should be used and positioned in the correct
environment and should not be used in a domestic setting. Due to the power and volatility of
Lithium batteries the charger and battery should be placed on a fireproof base at least 1.5
metres from any flammable materials. Overlander or its retailers accept no liability for losses to
