Features

1.

Nitecore strongly recommends that AAA, AAAA and 10440 Li-ion batteries are not

 

 

charged alone in the i4 charger. When using only one charging slot, the i4's current

automatically sets to 750mA, which exceeds the maximum current range of most

 

 

AAA, AAAA and 10440 Li-ion batteries. Failing to follow to this recommendation can

2.

Due to the aforementioned reasons, it is recommended that a minimum of two (2)

rechargeable batteries

 

 

AAA or 10440 rechargeable batteries are placed into the charging slots together.

3.

When charging different battery types simultaneously (for example, li-ion 26650 and

Battery Activation

The i4 is capable of activating depleted Li-ion batteries with protective circuit. After battery installation, i4 will test and activate the battery before charging. When a battery is detected as damaged, the three yellow indicator LEDs over the slot will flicker, and i4 terminates its charging. Such damaged battery cannot be activated by i4.

NOTE: Nitecore does not recommend charging 0V (depleted) unprotected Li-ion batteries with i4 and doing so can result in battery fire or explosion.
