Battery Pack Notes And Safety
1. Since Apex III and Apex IV PDT Battery Packs utilize Nickel
Metal-Hydride (NiMH) and Lithium-Ion (Li-Ion) composition
respectively, they DO NOT succumb to memory (hysteresis)
loss like Nickel-Cadmium (Ni-Cd) batteries.
Apex PDT
Battery Packs can therefore be charged while in any state-of-
charge and do not require full discharge prior to charging;
however, it is still recommended that the Apex III PDT Battery
Pack be fully discharged periodically to reset the internal gas
gauge circuitry (not used in Apex IV PDT Battery Packs).
2. DO NOT attempt to operate the Apex PDT once it has powered
down due to a low battery condition. When the Battery Pack is
exhausted, leave the exhausted Battery Pack in the Apex PDT
until you can either charge or swap the Battery Pack with a
fully charged Battery Pack. Information in volatile memory
(RAM) will be preserved since the Apex PDT is configured so
that even with an exhausted Battery Pack enough energy is
retained to maintain the information for an extended period of
time. DO NOT leave the unit WITHOUT a Battery Pack for
more than 5 minutes.
3. DO NOT short the Apex PDT Battery Pack terminals with any
conductive material. A short across the terminals could result
in the sudden release of all of the remaining Battery Pack
energy causing an explosion or fire.
4. Apex PDT Battery Packs should be disposed of properly. DO
NOT dispose of the Apex PDT Battery Pack in a flame or fire.
An explosion may occur. Apex PDT Battery Packs are
approved for disposal in a class 2 Landfill (normal trash);
however, recycling the Battery Packs reduces the amount of
raw materials consumption necessary to produce new Battery
Packs and also reduces the total landfill usage within your area.
We highly recommend that the Battery Packs be returned to the
factory for recycling at the end of their useful life. Contact
Compsee, Inc. for additional information.
