Battery Bay Charging
The UCH0054 will charge two xx90 style batteries at one time whereas UCH0053 will charge six (xx90) style
batteries at one time (including different battery chemistries or two of the same). If handheld PRC-XXX
batteries are inserted, the UCH0054 charger is able to charge four batteries at one time whereas UCH0053
charger will charge twelve batteries at one time. The battery type is automatically detected when it is placed
on the charger.
Charge Bay Diagram
When charging handheld PRC-XXX batteries, use the battery retention strap to secure the batteries in the
bay. This improves electrical contact to the batteries and reduces charge times. Stretch the strap across
the batteries and attach to each hook on the front of the plastic bay. The strap includes a plastic spacer to
place in-between the 2 batteries to ensure vertical alignment.
NOTE: PRC-148/152 charging pockets are unavailable for charging with some selected versions of the
UCH0053/UCH0054 chargers.
