9-Stage Hleðsluferli

This multi-stage process ensures optimal charging and extends battery life:

1. Afsúlfunarefni: Recovers sulfated batteries.
2. Mjúk byrjun: Gently introduces current to deeply discharged batteries.
3. Magngjald: Hleður rafhlöðuna upp í um það bil 80% afkastagetu við hámarksstraum.
4. Frásog: Charges the battery to 100% at a decreasing straumur.
5. Greining: Tests the battery's ability to hold a charge.
6. Endurnýjun: Restores deeply discharged or neglected batteries.
7. Flotagjald: Heldur rafhlöðunni við 100% hleðslu.
8. Pulse Maintenance: Applies pulses to keep the battery optimized during long-term storage.
9. Biðstaða: The charger enters a low-power state when charging is complete.

Specific Charging Modes

With the touch of a button, you can change your device’s charging modes:

• AGM Recondition Mode: Designed to bring old AGM batteries back to life, especially if they have been unused for a long period or have gone through a deep discharge.
• Lithium (7A) & Standard (7A) Trickle/Slow Charge Battery Modes: Ideal for charging smaller capacity lithium and standard batteries. Recommended for Gel, SLA, FLA batteries between 10-50AH and Lithium Batteries between 15-120AH (related to battery's BMS setting).
• Lithium Activation Mode: If your Lithium battery drops below its safety voltage parameters, toggle this mode. The charger will trickle charge the battery until it reaches the cut-in voltage, then automatically start normal charging cycles.
• Quiet Night Mode (5A): Lowers the output to 5A, allowing for quiet overnight charging without noisy fans. This mode can be activated on any charging setting.
