a load such as can occur with leaving lights on or cranking an
engine excessively. Allow such a battery to “Rest” for several
hours (overnight if possible) before determining if it is defective.
Be very suspicious of any 24-V battery that does not have at least
22 Volts (OCV) before it is recharged. It may well be seriously
damaged and unsafe for any type of use or recharge. The unit’s
Battery Condition Indication LED will help you determine if battery
is less than 22 Volts (
YELLOW) or greater than 22 Volts (GREEN).
8. After battery has been fully charged, the
GREEN Charge-Float
LED Indicator will begin blinking. It will continue to blink indefinitely,
unless unit is disconnected from battery. Should battery be unable
to be fully charged, the LED will not blink and the
RED Error LED
will blink. Battery may not be able to be fully charged, may be too
large or too deeply discharged to be fully charged in the normal
time allowed by charger. If you are certain battery is not defective,
having read and understood completely all of the above concerns
and conditions, proceed to reboot the charger by unplugging from
the wall (A.C.), disconnecting from the battery (D.C.) and waiting 10
seconds before reconnecting the battery and then the A.C. This
allows charger to begin charging battery again. If battery is not
defective it should be able to be fully charged after being restarted.
After sufficient time has lapsed the
GREEN charge LED Indicator
will blink confirming when / if battery is now fully charged.
Note: If attempting to charge more than one battery at a time, it is
very likely the charger will need to be restarted as described in order
to completely charge multiple batteries. We do not recommend
charging more than one battery at a time. A better solution is to
charge each battery separately using your BatteryMINDer and
then connect them together, if desired for long term maintenance-
float charging. We suggest reading
MAINTAINING MULTIPLE
BATTERIES,
page 18, and the additional LED Indicator functions,
page 11 not already covered above.
