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.
