Explanation of LiFePO
(See tables for methods for each charger model)
Charging method A
STEP 1 – BOOST CHARGE
To start a charge cycle, connect the charger to the mains.
The charger is in constant current mode, charging with the maximum current indicated on
the charger, the LED-indication on the charger is ORANGE. This step allows rapid charging
of your battery until the battery reaches typically 80 - 95% of its capacity.
STEP 2 – TOP-UP CHARGE
The charger is in constant voltage mode, charging with a decreasing current until the
current is below the charger's charge termination level (indicated on the charger). The
LED-indication on the charger is ORANGE. The battery is charged to its full capacity at the
end of this step.
STEP 3 –FLOAT CHARGE
The LED-indication on the charger is GREEN and the battery is fully charged.
The charge voltage is at float level and the charger may remain connected to the battery.
The charger will return to Step 1 if the battery is used. A load larger than the cut-off current
will initiate a new charge cycle.
