Soft-Start is used if a battery's voltage is under 10.5V when charging
begins. It uses a low constant current to slowly bring up voltage. This
prepares a weak or neglected battery for the Constant Current stage.
•
Constant Current (sometimes called Bulk) is the main charging stage.
The charger puts out a constant current of 2A, 4A or 8A for 12V and 1A,
2A or 4A for 24V, its full power. Battery voltage rises until the battery
reaches the optimal charging voltage.
•
Constant Voltage (sometimes called Absorption) is the second charging
stage. The charger regulates the current given to the battery to maintain
a constant voltage.
needed to maintain this voltage decreases. Once the current falls below
a 0.10A change per hour, the stage is complete.
•
Battery Test is administered by reading your battery voltage while
resting the battery for 10 minutes. A voltage of under 12.5V indicates a
weak battery, under 11.5V indicates a shorted cell. The battery is tested
at completion of the Constant Voltage stage, and every 12 hours while
in Float.
•
Float (sometimes called Maintenance) is the charger's long term stage.
The charger can and should be left connected indefinitely. This will keep
the battery fully charged ensuring no sulfate can form. The charger
maintains float voltage using very little power as it actively monitors the
battery and adjusts its output several times a second.

passes a Battery Test.
A neglected battery can take over 2 weeks of desulfation to correct. If
after 2 weeks it still reads as a Weak Battery, there is likely internal
physical damage.
