Product Information

The DJITM Air 3 Battery Charging Hub is a device designed to charge up to three Intelligent Flight Batteries. It can also supply power to external devices via the USB-C port and has a power accumulation function to transfer power between batteries.

Features:

• Charges up to three Intelligent Flight Batteries
• USB-C port for powering external devices
• Power accumulation function

Warnings:

1. Place the charging hub on a flat, stable surface with good ventilation when charging an external device or accumulating power.
2. Do not touch the metal terminals on the battery ports. Clean them with a clean, dry cloth if necessary.
3. Charge batteries with low battery power in time. Store batteries in the charging hub to prevent over-discharging.

Product Usage Instructions

Charging Intelligent Flight Battery

1. Insert the batteries into the charging hub until it clicks into place.
2. Connect the charging hub to a power outlet using a USB-C charger. The battery with the highest power level will be charged first, followed by the rest in sequence.
3. The status LED indicates the battery level during charging. Refer to the Status LED Descriptions for more information.
4. After charging, the battery can be stored in the charging hub. Remove the battery from the charging hub for use.

Using Charging Hub as a Power Bank

1. Insert an Intelligent Flight Battery into the charging hub.
2. Connect an external device, such as a mobile phone or remote controller, to the USB-C port.
3. Press the function button. The status LED of the charging hub turns solid green.
4. The battery with the lowest power level will be discharged first, followed by the remaining batteries.

Warnings

1. Place the charging hub on a flat, stable surface with good ventilation when charging an external device or accumulating power. Make sure the device is properly insulated to prevent fire hazards.
2. DO NOT attempt to touch the metal terminals on the battery ports. Clean the metal terminals with a clean, dry cloth if there is any noticeable buildup.
3. Make sure to charge batteries with low battery power in time. It is recommended to store the batteries in the charging hub. The charging hub automatically checks the battery power every seven days. When a battery has 0% power level, the battery with a high power level will charge the low power level battery until its power reaches 5% to prevent over-discharging.

Introduction

The DJITM Air 3 Battery Charging Hub is designed to charge up to three Intelligent Flight Batteries. After the Intelligent Flight Batteries are installed, the charging hub can supply power to external devices via the USB-C port, such as remote controllers or mobile phones. The charging hub can also use the power accumulation function to transfer the remaining power of multiple low-power batteries into the battery with the highest remaining power.

Usage

Charging Intelligent Flight Battery

1. Insert the batteries into the charging hub until it clicks into place. (Figure A1)

2. Connect the charging hub to a power outlet using
   a USB-C charger. The Intelligent Flight Battery with the highest power level will be charged first, and then the rest will be charged in sequence according to their power levels. The status LED indicates the battery level during charging. Refer to the Status LED
   Descriptions for more information about the blinking patterns of the status LED.

3. The battery can be stored in the charging hub after charging. Remove the battery from the charging hub for use. (Figure A2)
   

Using Charging Hub as a Power Bank

1. Insert an Intelligent Flight Battery into the charging hub. Connect an external device via the USB-C port, such as a mobile phone or remote controller. (Figure B)
2. Press the function button, and the status LED of the charging hub turns solid green. The battery with the lowest power level will be discharged first, followed by the remaining batteries to be discharged sequentially.
   To stop charging the external device, disconnect the external device from the charging hub.

If the remaining charge of a battery is lower than 7%, the battery cannot charge the external device.

Accumulating Power

1. Insert more than one battery into the charging hub, and press and hold the function button until the status LED turns green. The status LED of the charging hub pulses green, and the charge is transferred from the battery with the lowest power level to the battery with the highest power level.
2. To stop accumulating power, press and hold the function button until the status LED turns yellow. After stopping power accumulation, press the function button to check the power level of the batteries. Power accumulation stops automatically in the following situations:
   • a. The receiving battery is fully charged, or the power of the output battery is lower than 5%.
   • b. A charger or external device is connected to the charging hub or any battery is inserted or withdrawn from the charging hub during power accumulation.
   • c. Power accumulation is interrupted for more than 15 minutes due to abnormal battery temperature.
     After accumulating power, charge the battery with the lowest power level as soon as possible to avoid discharge.
