Your power meter will take approximately 3-4 hours to fully charge.
Please note that the charge time may depend on the power source used.

automatically operate as a single-sided powermeter; reported wattage from this side
will be doubled.
• Use a USB AC adapter with a voltage of 5.0V and with a current equal or greater
than 1.0A.
• Use the designated charge cable to charge the powermeter.
• Avoid contact of the charge cable and/ or powermeter with water while charging.
• Do not disassemble or modify the charge cable.

you want to operate your Podiiiium powermeter as a single-sided powermeter using
only one crank arm, follow the instructions in Section 2.4.2
