4-cell lithium iron phosphate battery pack charger, 2.8A at 12.8 volts, slow-start function and state-of-charge indicator LiFePO4

4-cell lithium iron phosphate battery charger

This is a charger for 4-series LiFP battery pack, nominally 12.8V (4x3.2V), which charge at 14.6 volts (4 x 3.65V). The bulk charge current is 2800 mA. It is a multi-stage li-iron LiFePO4 recharger with universal AC input. Includes a slow start feature and a 4-segment gas gauge.

This charger is perfect for overnight charging the new BMW lithium starter motor batteries.

These are state-of-the-art battery chargers that can be used on-demand, or left permanently on the battery for maintenance.. It uses energy-saving techniques and and and advanced charge precision. The slow-start function helps battery cycle life, especially with deeply discharged batteries. The charger is fully isolated from the mains, has universal AC input, and a removable AC cord. Will accurately lithium-iron packs.

Battery size	3 AH to 30+ AH packs
Charging current	2.8Amps continuous or 3200mA peak charge
Charger type	Constant Current/ Constant Voltage precision charger
Charging algorithm This is the "European" charge algorithm that does not float charge the battery at the last stage, but still keeps it maintained. (see the graph below)	Constant current/constant voltage
	Stage 1 slow start, pre-charge function for deeply discharged packs
	Stage 2 bulk charge stage. 3.3 amps is applied to the battery until the voltage rises to 14.6 volts
	Stage 4 constant voltage state until the charge current falls to 400mA
	Stage 5. The charger turns off.
