www.luthor.es
Battery charge
The TL-22 is equipped with a Lithium Ion battery (also known as Li-Ion or simply Lithium
battery). The main characteristics of these batteries are lightness, no memory effect
and a high energetic capacity in a reduced size. The majority of the lithium batteries
have more advantages than Ni-Mh batteries or the older and obsolete ones of Ni-Cad
(the cadmium is a very pollutant element), thought it is necessary to take some
cautions with the Lithium batteries, therefore we recommend you to read carefully the
warnings indicated on the subject of Lithium batteries in the paragraph located in the
pages 4, 5 and 6 of the Cautions and practical advices.
To carry out the charge of the batteries, the equipment is supplied with the LUTHOR
TL-440 charger, it is an intelligent one that identifies the battery charge to recharge it
only during the necessary time to complete its full capacity. In the case that the
battery is totally flat, the full capacity will be reached in about 5 hours. WARNING: it is
not at all advisable to recharge the battery with another charger than the original
TL-440 and not try to charge another battery different than the ones provided by
the brand for this charger.
