Lithium-‐Ion Flat Pack Battery
Unlike other types of battery, the lithium-‐ion battery has no ‘memory effect’ of
any kind. This means that it does not need to be fully discharged before it can
be charged up again. It actually helps to prolong the battery’s life if the
charging cycles are flat, in other words if the battery is always charged up
again immediately after use.
This type of battery combines lightness in weight with a very high charge
capacity. It is therefore very compact in design and will fit easily into the
carrier provided.
Lithium-‐Ion batteries may only be charged using a special charging circuit! The
reasonable use and above all correct charging of the battery as well as
protection from deep discharge and overheating will greatly help to prolong
it’s life. A suitable charging controller which takes all of these requirements
into account is already incorporated into the battery box to ensure optimum,
safe operation. A mains adapter without its own charge controller is therefore
all that is needed to charge the Lithium-‐ion battery.
There is always a certain amount of self-‐discharge (typically 1% per day at
room temperature) the battery should always be charged up before being used
for the first time.
The charge status is shown on the display. To check the charge status, briefly
press the button on top of the battery. Up to four LEDs will light up for a few
seconds to indicate the charge status.
