5. WARNING AND SAFTEY NOTE

Charging
During charge process, a specific quantity of electrical energy is fed into the battery.
The charge quantity is calculated by multiplying charge current by charge time. The
maximum permissible charge current varies depending on the battery type or its
performance, and can be found in the information by the battery manufacturer. Only
batteries that are expressly stated to be capable of quickcharge are allowed to be
charged at rates higher than the standard charge current.
Connect the battery to the terminal of the charger: red is positive and black is neg-
ative. Due to the difference between resistance of cable and connector, the charger
can not detect resistance of the battery pack, the essential requirement for the
charger to work properly is that the charge lead should be of adequate conductor
cross-section, and high quality connectors which are normally goldplated should be
fitted to both ends.
Always refer to the manual by the battery manufacturer pertaining to charging meth-
ods. Operate according to their recommended charging current and charging time.
lithium batteries, in particular, should be charged strictly according to the manufac-
turer's instruction.
Close attention should be paid to the connection of lithium batteries.
Do not attempt to disassemble the battery pack arbitrarily. Please get highlight-
ed that lithium battery packs can be wired in parallel and in series. In the parallel
connection, the battery's capacity is calculated by multiplying single the battery's
capacity by the number of cells, bearing in mind that total voltage stays the same.
If the voltage is imbalanced, it may cause a fire or explosion. Lithium batteries are
recommended to charge in series.
Discharging
The main purpose of discharging is to clean the residual capacity of the battery, or
to reduce the battery' voltage to a defined level. The same attention should be paid
to the discharging process as the charging process. The final discharge voltage
should be set up correctly to avoid deep discharging. Lithium batteries cannot be
discharged to lower than the minimum voltage, or it will cause a rapid loss of capac-
ity or a total failure. Generally, lithium batteries don't need to be discharged. Please
pay attention to the minimum voltage of lithium batteries to protect them.
Some rechargeable batteries have a memory effect. If they are partly used and
recharged before the whole charge is accomplished, they remember this and will
only use that part of their capacity next time. This is a ‚memory effect' It is said that
NiMH and NiCD batteries are suffering from memory effect. NiCD has more 'memo-
ry effect' than NiMH.
Lithium batteries are recommended to be discharged partially rather than fully.
Frequent full discharging should be avoided if possible. Instead, charge the battery
more often or use a battery of larger capacity. Full capacity cannot be reached until
it has been subjected to 10 or more charge cycles. The cyclic process of charge
and discharge will optimize the capacity of battery pack.
