DESCRIPTION AND OPERATION DESCRIPTION AND OPERATION
3 3
3.2 CHARGING
When the battery runs out, it must be recharged. Connect the charger to the battery and then plug it into
the 230V socket. The charger now starts charging with a charging current of 2A.
During charging, the LED lights red.
At the end of the charging cycle the LED lights green.
The battery capacity can be read by pressing the thickener in the foil. One, two or three green LEDs will
light up as a rough indication of the charge status. When the battery is empty, a small red LED lights up.
The charging time depends on the charging status at the start of the charging cycle. If the capacity is still
40%, 6Ah must be charged. The charging time is then around 3 hours x 2A + around 1 hour = around 4
hours. The charger can be continuously connected to 230V, even after the battery is fully charged. Never
charge the battery pack at temperatures below 0°C. At -10°C, a protection device is activated which makes
charging impossible. The battery can be discharged or used up to a temperature of -20°C.
Stop the charging process if the battery becomes too hot during charging (> 45 °C 50 °C).
WARNING
The battery can also be charged by solar panels if they are connected to a charger that is suitable for
charging LiFePO4 batteries. We have the XS20s MPPT Solar charger in our program. Because of the MPPT
technique this charger gets the maximum efficiency from your Solar panels. You can also charge the bat-
tery while driving. For this you need to use a so-called charge booster, see paragraph 3.4.
