Charging a Lithium Battery in Balance Mode
This mode balances the voltage of the Li-poly battery cells while charging. In this mode, the battery needs a
balance lead to connect to the individual balance port. The battery's power lead must be connected to the
charger's output.
Charging in this mode is different from the normal modes, as the built-in processor monitors the voltage of the
individual cells and controls the input current fed into each cell to the equalized voltage of the individual cell.
Charging a Lithium Battery in Fast Mode
The charging current decreases when the charging process reaches its end. A specific CV process will be
reduced to end the charging process earlier. In fact, the charging current will go to 1/5 when the charging
process is at 1/10. The charging capacity will be a little less than normal charging, but charging time will be
shortened accordingly.

This display shows the battery type with the user-set current value (left) and
the charging value (right). Hold START/ENTER pressed for 3 seconds to start
the charging process.
This display shows the user-set number of cells. R shows the number of cells
detected by the charger; S shows the previously set number of cells. If both
numbers are identical, you can start the charging process by pressing
START/ENTER. If not, press TYPE/STOP to go back to the previous screen
and carefully check the number of cells of the battery.
This display shows the real-time charging status. Press TYPE/STOP to stop
the charging process.
a. number of cells
b. charging time
c. charging current
d. battery voltage
e. charged capacity
Here, you can set the battery's current and voltage. Charging and
discharging will make the battery come to the storage voltage level.
This display shows the real-time charging status. Press TYPE/STOP to stop
the charging process.
