6-8
hours to reach full capacity,
Place your battery on charge whenever not in use, but avoid leaving it
plugged in for more than three days at a time.
From

the charge rate will be around
0.5%
of charge a minute.
After it reaches
90%,
the charge is reduced and it will take longer to
get to
100%.
Charging indicators:
Flashing Red - Charging 1 to 10%
Flashing Yellow - Charging 11 to 25%

Solid Green - Fully Charged, 100%
Flashing Red/Yellow/Green - See Errors section
For Cox Box Charging:
For Standalone Charger:
»
Batteries made prior to
2015
with low capacity can be helped by
rebalancing.
1. Drain battery completely
2. Set aside for
2 days
3. After 2 days, charge unit until
full
.
»
Batteries after 2015 will “self-balance” but it is best to occasionally
fully drain and fully charge these batteries (without 2 day waiting
period) to have this happen.
»
Check the “spring pins” in the charger or Cox Box battery cavity to
ensure none are stuck in the down position. If a pin is down, use
alcohol to try and work it in and out to set back to proper height.
»
Dry off battery and charger before charging. Never charge a wet
battery.
