8. Charging Instructions
When charging Li+AGE DCU100B-V2 makes sure that you are not using a charger meant for other Lithium ion
chemistries, which are typically set to a higher voltage than required by LiFePO4 batteries. Most mains lead
acid battery chargers can be used if the voltage setting is within the parameters of LiFePO4 batteries but
some smart chargers might only charge up to 90%. If this is the case we recommend getting a LiFePO4
charger. However you will not cause any damage to the battery if using your old charger.
Check that your charger cables are insulated and free of breakage. Charger terminal connectors should be
clean and properly mate with the battery terminals to ensure a good connection and optimum conductivity.
