User questions & answers

Question:	What gauge wire are the charging leads
Answer:	#6
Question:	can charge battery outside the car
Answer:	Sure, You can also remove the battery from the car and charge it at home
Question:	Will the 2/10/25 model allow me to step the Boost down to use 15Amp, if I need to use a 15 amp wall outlet at some location
Answer:	This charger 2/10/25 model is the charing rate for your battery. You can use it at any wall outlet in 110V voltage.
Question:	Can you you explain why this will not charge a dead battery? Isnt that what battery chargers are for? Ty
Answer:	By "dead battery" the manufacturer means, a battery that is beyond repair. Any battery that has been drawn below 4 volts will not be sensed by the charger as a safety measure because it is beyond repair and could cause fires or electrical issues. This charger will recharge a battery that is temporarily out of energy (could read 10 volts to 12 volts on a voltmeter), but not one that is "dead" or damaged beyond repair (would read very low voltage, like 3 volts).

User questions & answers

Question:	Does this item have an internal cooling fan
Answer:	Yes, it does. This smart battery charger features with one cooling fan and reliable cooling vent to disperse heat and increase charging efficiency.
Question:	How long does reconditioning or repair mode take? My battery has been in repair mode for over 12 hrs. Can it get stuck and does that hurt the battery
Answer:	The recondition time depends on the status of your battery. The recondition function adopts high voltage up to 15.8V to stimulation battery, mainly for the bad battery caused by short circuit or low-softening plate. The working cycle is five cycles, each cycle is 4 hours. If the charger test concludes that the battery (using the object) is still less than 12V after the repair cycle, the dead battery is determined.
Question:	Why does my charger keep saying clap the battery when i did and nothing happens
Answer:	Below about 4Volts, the charger doesn't think a battery is connected, and you won't see voltage displayed. If you can boost or parallel the voltage high enough, it will start charging, but a battery that dead is probably destroyed. As for other answer saying to press the charge button, you can change options for 30 seconds and manually press charge, or just wait and it starts by itself (auto-amperage and flooded cell by default) once it detects the battery and you see voltage displayed.
Question:	Will the charger work with batteries connected in parallel (eg. RV house batteries) without having to disconnect them
Answer:	This smart battery charger supports charging 12V lead-acid battery. It is not recommended to charge battery in parallel. Because the surge current is too large, the battery would be damaged.

User questions & answers

Question:	My newer cars use gel batteries. Will this auto adjust for those
Answer:	I installed underneath the seats and behind the rear seat, sealing off the trunk. It reduced road noise drastically. This is a great sound barrier and deadener.
Question:	What is the output voltage
Answer:	The roll is 3" thick, as in it is multiple layers of thin sheets. It is clear from the photo that a single layer isn't that thick. If anything it is just confusion by whomever wrote the description. I used a single roll of this to coat the entire interior of my Miata. Everywhere from the doors, under all the carpets, under the dashboard and so on. Significant improvement in sound, and it is much easier to regulate the temperature in the car. If it is a hot day, simply getting rid of the warm air by opening a window for a minute is enough to bring the internal temperature down to comfortable levels. The thickness is perfect as it fits discretely anywhere I put it, and noone can tell that I put it everywhere. Nothing has come off at all for me after a year, but it is sandwiched between 2 layers, so I can't confirm for other applications.
Question:	How long should it take to charge completely dead battery at 10 amps
Answer:	I have never tried it on a dishwasher but in the truck that i installed it in there was a slight smell the first day after i installed it and then the next day the smell was no longer there. it has been a few months since i installed it and the smell never returned and with temps in South Louisiana hitting a heat index of 110 the smeel still has not returned.i hope this helps and let me know how it goes because i never thought about doing the dishwasher butnow you have me thinking.
Question:	Will this charge a deep cycle marine battery and maintain it
Answer:	I do not think it would be a good idea to use this material on a window. It has a black sticky side which would be hard to remove and the other side is aluminum foil. Once applied it would be hard to remove. It does reduce the noise and vibrations, but would not look very good.

User questions & answers

Question:	Why can't the charger charge my battery
Answer:	The battery has lost power and is below 8V. Press the fourth repair button for 8 seconds and a snowflake appears to start charging.
Question:	The screen is always beating while the charger is charging
Answer:	May have entered floating charge mode.
Question:	After fully charging the display voltage of 14.4V, repair the display voltage of 13.3V. What is the situation
Answer:	When the battery is charged, the lead-acid liquid heats up and becomes a virtual electricity. When the charging is stopped, the electrons in the battery stop moving, and the battery voltage will drop.
Question:	Is there a safety feature that stops it from over charging?Does this draw power from a battery if left connected to the battery
Answer:	Of course it has. This smart battery charger features with Smart Detect System to detect the battery voltage and capacity, and automatically switches to float mode to prevent overcharging. Once the battery is fully charged it will automatically shut off. No draw.
