Important Precautions

DO NOT

 leave the charger unattended while in use.

Disconnect the battery and remove the input power from the charger immediately if 

the charger or battery becomes hot

!

DO  NOT

  attempt  to  charge  incompatible  types  of  rechargeable  batteries  as  this 

could result in permanent damage to the battery and charger

.

DO NOT

 use automotive type battery chargers to power the charger.

DO NOT

 allow water, moisture or foreign objects into the charger.

DO NOT

 attempt to use batteries with more cells or total voltage than listed in the 

specifications

.

DO NOT

 overcharge batteries as this can cause permanent damage. Do not use a 

charge current rate which exceeds the safe levels of the battery

.

DO NOT

 place the charger or battery on flammable surfaces or near combustable 

materials while in use

such as a carpet

cluttered workbench

paper

plastic

vinyl

leather and wood

inside an R

/

C model or full size car

.

The  circuit  is  designed  to  be  powered  by  an  11

~

18V  DC  source  only

NEVER

 

CONNECT

 

BOTH

 

AT

 

THE

 

SAME

 

TIME

.

 

Allow the charger and battery to cool down between charges

.

Always disconnect the charger from the power source when not in use

Input Power

• 

DC Input

This charger can be powered by a portable 12V DC power source for use at 

the field

/

track

On the left side of the charger

connect the DC power cord

s alligator 

clips  directly  to  the  output  terminals  on  the  12V  DC  power  source

.

Always  match 

polarities 

(

red lead to red 

‘+’ 

terminal

black lead to black 

‘-’ 

terminal

). 

To utilise the 

charger

s absolute maximum power capabilities the DC power source must be capable 

of delivering at least 5 amps while maintaining 12 volts DC

.

WARNING

Never  accidentally  short  together  the  positive  (+)  and  negative  (-)  input 

connections when connected to the 12V DC power

Doing so could result in permanent 

damage to the power source and the charger

.

This charger is rated for a maximum output power of 45 watts

Depending on certain

 

conditions 

(

if the charge current is set to maximum

the maximum number of cells are  

connected to the output

and input voltage is low

), 

the actual current delivered to the 

battery might be slightly less than the setting

This is normal

.

The charger will be on all times when connected to input power

Disconnect the charger 

from input power when not in use

.
