Special features

Optimized operating software

When charging or discharging, it has an “AUTO”

function that sets the feeding current automatically.

Especially for Lithium batteries, it can prevent the over-

charging can lead to an explosion by users fault. Every

program in the unit is controlled with mutual links and

communication for every possible error so it introduces a

maximum safety. These can be set at users option.

Dual input power

It employs the circuit that maximum output power of

50W for charging. As a result, it can charge up to 15

1—6Series
