Charging Times
Charging time will depend on the capacity of your battery and on how
deeply it is discharged. The following equation gives an approximate
charging time:
Charging time = CAP × DOD
850
where:
Charging Time = Battery recharge time in hours
CAP = Battery capacity in ampere hours
DOD = Battery depth of discharge in % (A fully discharged battery
has 100% DOD)
Example:
The battery is a Group 27 size with a rated capacity of 80 ampere-hours.
It is 80% discharged (i.e. DOD = 80). Charging time with a Truecharge
10 will be:
80 × 80 = 7.5 hours
850
Care and Maintenance
Your Truecharge 10 contains solid-state electronic components that
require no maintenance. The best care you can give your Truecharge 10
is to protect it from contact with liquids, spray, or fumes that may cause
corrosion. Clean the case and cords with a damp cloth if you suspect
contact with battery fluid, salt water, gasoline or oil, or other corrosive
material. Corrosion on the clips may be removed with a solution of water
and baking soda.
CAUTION! RISK OF ELECTRICAL SHOCK. The Truecharge 10
contains no user-serviceable components. Do not open the unit or
attempt to service the unit. Contact your dealer or the manufacturer for
service information.
