Lithium batteries are amazingly efficient during a charge and rarely go up in temperature at all
when charging properly.
WARNING! This feature is not designed to save your batteries.
If a pack starts to
overheat, it is an early sign that the pack has already been damaged or that you have
programmed the current too high. Shutting off the Xtrema early (as a result of an overheated
battery) is designed to greatly minimize the probability of smoking or igniting the battery.

. You will see four battery pack configurations that can be customized and
remembered by the Xtrema. These can represent four of your most common pack configuration.
Use the up
or down
buttons on the joystick to pick the pack you want. If none of them match,
pick any one of the four you want to change. In the next step, you will be able to change the values
to match your battery. Your setting will be automatically remembered the next time you enter this
menu. Press the right
button when you have made your selection.
Note:
If at first you do not see any pack like the ones you own, simply pick any one of the
batteries. You are ALWAYS given the option to change those settings of the memorized location
and the current pack.
