Leaving the battery in the charger
The charger and battery pack can be left connected with the
LED glowing indefinitely. The charger will keep the battery
pack fresh and fully charged.
Hot/Cold Pack Delay
When the charger detects a battery that is too hot or too cold,
it automatically starts a Hot/Cold Pack Delay, suspending
charging until the battery has reached an appropriate
temperature. The charger then automatically switches to the
pack charging mode. This feature ensures maximum battery
life.
