Spectra Assembly Guide
NiMH Rechargeable Battery
• A rechargeable NiMH (Nickel Metal Hydride) battery (Orange Decal)
is provided with your Spectra. This battery can be recharged hundreds of times.
Full charge can be achieved anytime during the discharge cycle (a non-memory
system). The provided “Smart Charger” and “Charging Cradle/Stand” sense
the type of charge the battery needs and automatically adjust the charge cycle.
From fully low this system provides a full charge in as little as 3-4 hours. A full
charge will last ten to twelve hours of normal use. Battery life will vary with
temperature, the number of targets found, and the exact settings used. Six hours
is not unusual for extreme high performance settings, or for batteries that have
experienced extensive use.
• The battery will lose its charge during storage. If stored inserted
in your instrument, this loss will be more significant. It is recommended that
the battery be removed from the Spectra during periods of storage. It is not
advisable to store rechargeable batteries for long periods of time without use (six
+ months). If extended storage is necessary, store with a charge (charged). If
possible, recharge at least once every six months of non-use.
• Do not discharge the battery in devices other than your metal
detector. Unnecessary discharging and/or an absolute discharge will reduce
battery life and may damage the battery. Unlike older rechargeable battery
designs, the rechargeable battery provided with your Spectra can be recharged
at any time. Regardless of whether or not it already has a partial charge, memory
will not occur.
• White’s has provided the leading edge NiMH rechargeable battery
technology with your Spectra. Disregard advice that conflicts with the above
recommendations. Care for batteries provided by other manufacturers, or with
other White’s models, may vary.
• Do not combine (use) any other battery, or any other battery charger,
not specifically designed to work with this system.
• The NiMH battery provided with your Spectra may be subject to
recycling laws in your area. It is the right thing to do and is often legally required.
