Charge-Check s
purpose is to periodically top-up a device s battery to
minimize overcharging. For reference, overcharging (or trickle
charging) is the act of charging a battery beyond its capacity, for
extended and unnecessary periods of time. Once a charging cycle has
started,
Charge-Check
will monitor the device and charge the battery
until su ciently topped-up (up to a maximum of 4 hours). At this
point, it will suspend charging for a set length of time (be default 3
hours) before attempting to top-up the battery again. This is a
recommended strategy because Lithium-ion batteries are proven to
last longer when the battery s charge percentage hovers consistently
The modes on
Charge-Check
give the user the ability to con gure a timeout
length between top-ups of 1 to 5 hours, based on their device charge time and
usage levels. In Single Charge mode, any additional charges of the device will
need to be manually restarted by pressing the black button on the
Charge-
Check
unit.
Con guration of

is completed using the black button located on
the unit.

Charge-Check
was intended for a number of di erent applications, meaning this default 3 hour timeout may not be
appropriate for some devices. As a result, the user is able to con gure the time allocations between top-ups , or
disabling top-ups all together. The following will guide you through the advanced con guration feature of
