Truecharge 10TB Owner’s Manual

6.0 Charging Times

The time taken for the Truecharge to fully recharge the battery(s) connected to it depends on many factors such as, the size (capacity in amp hours) of the battery (or total capacity if two batteries are connected), and how deeply the battery(s) are discharged. The following simple formula can be used to establish the approximate expected charging time.

Total Ah of Battery(s) x Depth of Discharge

Approx. Charging time in hrs

=

900

Where “Depth of Discharge” is the percentage of charge that has been used (0% is fully charged, and 100% is completely discharged).

As an example, for a Group 27 size battery with a rated capacity of 80 amp hours that is 75% discharged, the formula becomes:

Approx. Charging time in hrs

=

80 x 75

= 6.7 Hours

900
