• Charging the battery

Always use the supplied USB cable when charging the batter and updating the software. Charging may take

4-6hrs to receive full capacity depending on the charging source.

When the battery is fully charging the icon is solid.

The battery can provide up to 6 hours playing time, depending on the chanters settings. The display intensity,

pitch change all effect the length of battery power. To recharge the chanter, insert the USB cable into a USB

socket (100mA preferred), and for maximum charge leave for 3-4 hours. Do not leave the battery fully

discharged for a period of time, it may effect the battery life.

The Chanter can also be powered from portable battery packs, as used by smartphones.
