Professional Usage Guide
Power Connection Setup
Connect the NEW i2 to external power source using the included AC adapter (100-240V) or optional 12V DC car adapter. The dual power input design ensures charging capability both at home and on the road. Verify solid connection before proceeding with battery installation.
Battery Installation
Insert one or two rechargeable batteries into the independent charging slots according to the polarity markings on the charger. The spring-loaded copper contacts ensure secure connection and optimal electrical conductivity. The i2 accommodates battery lengths from 30mm to 69.3mm for universal compatibility.
Automatic Detection & Charging
The intelligent microprocessor automatically detects battery chemistry and capacity, then applies appropriate charging current and voltage. Four LEDs illuminate for Li-ion batteries, two LEDs for Ni-MH batteries. Charging begins within two seconds with real-time LED status indicators showing progress.
Monitoring & Completion
Monitor charging progress through the three-color LED indicators (yellow, red, green) showing battery status and charging percentage. The charger automatically terminates charging when batteries reach full capacity and switches to maintenance mode. Remove batteries when charging cycle completes for optimal battery longevity.
Advanced Features: For 4.35V high-voltage lithium batteries, manually select voltage using the V button. IMR battery restoration available through C+V button combination for depleted cells. Active Current Distribution automatically redirects full charging power to remaining battery when one completes charging, maximizing efficiency and reducing total charging time.
