FEATURES

Your RadioShack Ni-Cd and Nickel Met- al Hydride Rechargeable Battery Pulse Charger lets you quickly charge five dif- ferent sizes of standard nickel-cadmium (Ni-Cd) or nickel-metal hydride (Ni-MH) batteries.

The charger’s four battery chambers let you charge up to four batteries of the same size and type — AAA, AA, C, or D

at the same time, while the connector inside the charger lets you also charge one 9V battery.

Your charger has these features:

Intelligent Discharge System (IDS)

automatically discharges and conditions cells to a suitable level before recharg- ing, to ensure maximum charging ca- pacity.

Microprocessor Controlled Charging

automatically detects the battery type and monitors the charging process to ensure the right amount of current is supplied.

Soft-Start Charging — gradually in- creases charging current when batteries start charging to avoid heat build-up that can reduce battery life.

Fuzzy Logic Intelligent Charging Cur- rent Control — automatically senses when a battery is fully charged and switches first to top-off, then trickle- charge, to prevent overcharging.

Red LED Indicator — shows 9V battery

charging status.

Liquid Crystal Display — shows AAA, AA, C, or D-size battery charging status.
