Technical points

In order to use this charger well, please read the following technical knowledge

Measure the internal resistance of batteries
The Auto mode of the charger distributes the appropriate current by measuring the internal rcsistance(DC IR).so it is necessary to measure more precise values.Please keep the positive and negative connectors of the charger clean and free of grease_ stain, and the positive and egative electrodes of the battery clean.And check the spring of each slot to ensure that 1hc battery and charger are in good contact.

Measure battery capacity

• Industry-approved test capacity method, room temperature of about 24 °C, charge battery with Ii-ion 4.2Y, and then discharges at a constant current of 0.2C to 2.SY. Please remember keep record of discharging time.
• In this way, the capacity mAh of the battery is obtained by multiplying the discharge current by the discharge time.
• Capacity(mAh)= Current (mA)* Time (Hour)
• So tell us that in order to use the S4 PLUS charger to measure the battery capacity more accurately, please measure room temperature around 24 degrees. If the temperature is too low, the battery capacity will be greatly reduced.Then choose the appropriate battery discharge current, about 0.2C rate, if the difference-is very small. the capacity gap is very small.
• Please do not use the capacity shown during charging as the battery capacity, because many batteries arc out of power from the device, and the battery voltage is about 3.0-3.4 Y. The battery has 1hc remaining capacity in it, so the charging capacity is just for rough reference.
• In order to measure discharge capacity more accurately, we set the discharge cut-off voltage of Ii-ion battery at 2.6Y.There are a lot of high capacity I 8650,21700 batteries, The discharge mode is in the range of3.0Y-2.5Y, there arc still about 50-200mAh capacity.

Current selection

• This charger have high charge current 3A and discharge current I A,
• To ensure safety, please refer to the battery specification and select the appropriate charge and di6cargc currents in Manual mode.
• If the current is too high, the battery may become very hot and explode!
• In Auto mode, if the internal resistance of measurement is relatively large due to poor contact or oil stain, the allocated current will be relatively small.
• If you want to increase the charging current, press the current button for at least 2 seconds. The current of the display screen will flicker continuously, then pressing the current button can change the current.
• CC. CY mode is used for charging Ii-ion battery in charger
• If the battery voltage before charging is relatively high, such as 4.1 Y, put into the charger at Auto mode, even if the internal resistance is very low, very small charging current will be allocated,as the charge current decrease and out offaf the last stage of charging .

Charger Temperature Control
Temperature sensors arc installed in each slot of the charger to monitor the temperature of the battery in real time.If the battery temperature is too high, we will reduce the charging current intelligcntly,cnsurc safety

1. Temperature is higher than 65 °C. If the charging current is higher than I 500 mA(excluding 1500 mA), it will be reduced to 2 level, for example your current charge current is 3000mA, it will be automatically charged at 2000mA.
2. The temperature of the slot is more than 70 °C. If charge current is more than 500 mA (excluding 500 mA), the charging current will be forced to drop to 500 mA.

Battery charging current level:
250mA, 500mA, I OOOmA, I 500mA, 2000mA, 2500mA, 3000mA

Re-change MODE or CURRENT
Jfthe batte,y is charging or discharging, other modes can be changed by pressing the MODE button for 2 seconds, and the current can be changed 11mnediatcly after chang111g . the mode, but the data on the previous display will disappear. Please be careful. When chargers works properly, S4 Plus docs not support pressing current button . directly at 2 seconds to change the current. Only in Auto mode the charge cun-ent can be changed directly during the charg111g . process.

Extending the Service Life of Charger

• This is an intelligent multi-function charger.
• In order to obtain a longer service life, please keep operate in dry . env1ronment . m door, and have enough space to emit heat. In order to prolong the service life, please try not to discharge/charge four slots at full load for a long time. Because full-load opcrauon will lead to the increase of charger temperature, long-tenn high tcmpemrurc of charger will accelerate the aging of charger parts. Be kind to it and continue to serve you
