Battery Level Indicators
White LED lights will indicate the following battery levels:
4 LEDs = 80% to 100%
3 LEDs = 50% to 80%
2 LEDs = 25% to 50%
1 LED = 2% to 25%
0 LEDs = 0% to 2%

*Note: Even if no LEDs are illuminated, the qCharge can continue to charge the Apple Watch as long as the qCharge battery level is greater than 0%.
To ensure full battery level capacity, continue charging the qCharge for an additional 20 minutes after the 4th LED illuminates and remains on.

Fuel Gauge Lifetime Optimization

The qCharge features an adjustable fuel gauge to ensure accurate battery level indication. The fuel gauge will continuously optimize its algorithm to account for various factors over the life of the qCharge, including unit-to-unit variations, temperature, and aging. This feature is independent of various Apple Watch series, and will continue to adjust for accurate fuel levels for the lifetime of the qCharge.

Auto Shutoffs

The qCharge includes a current sensor to monitor and regulate the charging current. This sensor serves as a safety measure and will trigger automatic shutoffs under specific conditions.

Auto shutoffs will only be activated when the qCharge is NOT connected to a USB power source.

• Two-minute shutoff
  Without an Apple Watch on top of it, the qCharge will automatically shut off after one minute.

• Shutoff after Apple Watch is fully charged:
  When the Apple Watch is fully charged, the charging current will drop and trigger the one-minute shutoff.

• 4-hour shutoff
  Without USB input, the qCharge will shut off automatically after 3 hours, regardless of charging status. This is a safety measure to ensure that, in the event of a malfunction or a foreign object, the qCharge does not continue to transmit current indefinitely.
