HOW DO I KNOW IF THE BATTERY IS CHARGED?

The charger will indicate full on the display. Alternatively use a Battery Hydrometer (Projecta Part No. BH100). A reading of 1.250 or more in each cell indicates a fully charged battery.

I HAVE CONNECTED THE CHARGER PROPERLY BUT THE CHARGER WON’T START CHARGING?

In some cases batteries can be flattened to the point where they have very little or no voltage. This can occur if a small amount of power is used for a long time, for example a map reading light is left on for a week or more. Projecta 8 Stage chargers are designed to charge from as little as 2.0 Volts.

If the voltage is lower than the voltages stated above use a pair of booster cables to connect between two batteries to provide more than 2.0 Volts to the battery being charged. The charger can then start to charge the battery and the booster cables can be removed.

CAN I USE THE CHARGER AS A POWER SUPPLY?

Projecta 8 Stage chargers are designed to only supply power to the battery clips when they are connected correctly to a battery. This is to prevent sparks during connection to the battery or if connected incorrectly by mistake. This safety feature prevents the charger from being used as a ‘Power Supply’.

HOW CAN I TELL WHAT STAGE THE BATTERY CHARGER IS IN?

Look at the gauge at the bottom of the display and voltage to determine at what point the charger is at.

I HAVE CONNECTED MY CHARGER TO THE BATTERY AND THE DISPLAY SHOWS 0.00V.
