Setting charging current
L 21.4/p15 00:00
Setup Amps: 5.0A
The charging current can be modified during charging with the [+] and [-] keys.
No general recommendations can be made for setting the charging current as it depends on both the
battery packs and the intended application. A general rule is that higher charging current yields
higher stored voltage (= power) and lower charging current yields more capacity (= operating time)
when discharging the battery pack. For quick-charging battery packs, you should select a charging
current between 3 and 6 amperes.
SANYO battery pack: charging current 4.5A - 5.5A (standard 5.0 A)
