3.2 Low battery 

When the battery voltage becomes too low (10.8V and below), the battery base unit goes to sleep and light output 
is closed. 
You must recharge the battery base unit before you can use it again. 

 

3.3 Flight case charger system 

 

Warning! 

Do not lay the flight case during charging the LiteWare units. 

The flight case has to be open during charging the LiteWare units as warm is generated. 

 

1.

 Ensure that the flight case is plugged into a mains supply with the supplied mains lead. 

2

. Place the LiteWare HO2 into the flight case. Do not cover the flight case. 

     During battery charging, the display on the battery base shows level of battery charging. By pressing the    
     PREV or NEXT button you can see the battery voltage, charging current and another data. When the battery 
     is fully charged, the message “CHARGED“ will appear.  

 
 

3.4 Battery care 

The LiteWare HO2 contains a sealed (GEL) lead-acid battery. The battery should not be left in a 
discharged state for long periods because this will reduce its capacity. We recommend leaving the LiteWare HO2 
on charge permanently when not in use. 
 
The following points should help maintain the long life of your LiteWare battery: 
• When in use, the LiteWare HO2 automatically switches off when the battery voltage reaches a set lower 
limit.

 

This is to avoid any deep discharge damage of the battery. It is not recommended that LiteWare batteries be 

left for any prolonged period in this state. Discharging the battery under 70% accelerates its aging process.  
• The LiteWare HO2 should always be fully re-charged as soon as possible. Once fully charged LiteWare HO2 can be 
stored. 
• If the LiteWare HO2 is to be unused for long periods, we recommend the LiteWare HO2 is charged every two 
months to keep the batteries topped up. 
• From market data, the estimated number of uses in a normal environment is around 200 cycles. 
This may be higher if the LiteWare HO2 is not run to ‘turning off automatically’ every time. We recommend 
replacing LiteWare battery every two years. 
• Do not disconnect the LiteWare unit from the charging case before reaching 90% of the battery capacity.
