13. How warm do Minn Kota battery chargers get?
• Minn Kota battery chargers can reach 150° F. They may get warm in an enclosed area. The maximum recommended room
temperature for charging batteries is 122° F. If the charger seems to get "hot," try opening a hatch to help cool the charger. When
the charger is hot, the output current will drop to protect the charger and the battery.
14. What happens if AC power is lost during a charging cycle with the Minn Kota Precision battery charger?
• The PC charger will simply restart the charging cycle with the battery type that was originally selected. Losing power or unplugging
the PC charger does not clear your battery type selection.
15. What size fuses are used on Minn Kota battery chargers?
• Chargers with a yellow fuse holder use a 30 amp AGX 32V automotive fuse. An AGC can be used but may not fit as well as the
AGX. Chargers with a red fuse holder use a 30 amp ATC 32V automotive fuse.
16. What Batteries can be charged by a Minn Kota charger?
• Minn Kota Precision and Digital Chargers can charge 12V 6 cell lead-acid batteries and certain 12V Lithium batteries. Minn Kota
Precision Chargers have a selectable battery setting that optimizes the charge when specific battery types are selected (Flooded
lead-acid, AGM and Lithium (LiFePO
Check maximum Amp input rating of battery. Using a charger with an amp output that is too high may cause permanent damage.
17. Why do the LEDs on my Precision Charger stay illuminated for a period of time after unplugged from AC power?
• This is normal and does not affect your batteries. It is simply a function of the Precision charging ensuring the charger is
disconnected prior to terminating the charge cycle. The PC charger takes many complex and detailed measurements of the battery
during a charge cycle. The software in the charger processes this information to make the best possible decisions to give your
battery the best charge on the market. In some cases, the measurements and software algorithms make it difficult to detect when
AC has been disconnected and therefore the charger may take a while to power down and turn off.
18. Will I damage my batteries if I leave the charger plugged in over long periods of non-use (like storage)?
• No. Minn Kota's on-board chargers float the battery voltage between 13.2V and 13.5V in the "maintenance" stage (3rd stage.)
This will allow you to keep your battery charger plugged in for long periods of time without "boiling the battery dry."
NOTICE:
It is important to check the electrolyte level approximately every 30 days. Batteries should be filled after charging,
and the electrolyte level should be even in all cells and below the fill well in each cell. If the battery plates are exposed before
charging, add just enough water to cover the plates. If the battery is overfilled before charging, it may overflow during charging.
19. Can I charge Lithium batteries?
• Yes, Lithium (LiFePO
charger on a Lithium battery, check the battery manufacture's charging requirements to ensure a proper charge.
