Title: Lidle Tronic T4X Battery Charger arrived.
Post by: [GQC] Tim on March 17, 2008, 11:42:39 am

Looks good, but I don't know which mode to use, mode 2 or mode 3, mode 3 is for cold circumstances and for several AGM batteries with more then 14Ah, but Mode 3 does mention trickle charging once full, while mode 2 (for car batteries exceeding 14ah) only says after charging the battery, there is float current is available for the battery.

(mode 1 is for motorbikes)

Which one to use?

if its a leisure battery,

then you connect up the terminal clips, then press the button and put it on to the little snow flake setting, it the led light should stay red until it is fully charged, and then it will trickle charge after that

Ah ok, thanks for that. What is the difference between Mode 2 and 3 then? Is it a different charge applied after it's fully charged or something?

(It is a leisure battery, 12v 100Ah, Marine and Recreation Energy Batteries)
