This is a Duratrax IntelliPeak DC Deluxe Pulse Peak Charger for Charging and Discharging Nickel Cadmium (NiCd) and Nickel Metal Hydride (NiMH) Battery Packs.  If you are a racer, a high-quality charger and discharger is a must.  Because this is a peak charger, you know you will get the most power possible in your battery pack every time, without damaging the packs.

*** Five-Year Warranty ***

FEATURES:

• Peak Charges NiCd and NiMH batteries using true specialized Peak charging technology for NiMH batteries, plus Discharging and Cycling features not commonly found in other chargers.
• "Negative Delta V" Peak Detection for NiCds, plus advanced "Zero Delta V" Peak Detection technology specifically for NiMHs, providing full Charges without overcharging.
• Built-in Artificial Intelligence to eliminate false Peaks
• Auto-selects Peak Detection method by identifying cell chemistry
• Auto-identifies the quantity of cells being Charged
• Computerized control, 8-bit 4MHz CPU with 8K ROM, 1K RAM, 1-channel 16-bit Analog-To-Digital Converter.
• High efficiency P-Channel MOSFET drive transistors
• 11-15V DC input.
• Output: 4-7 cells on DC, Adjustable Fast Charge Current of .5-6.5A
• Pulsed fast charge, with 8-bit pulse width modulated current control output.
• 100mA TRICKLE charge
• 10 and 2A fixed Discharge rates, selectable by switch. Fixed 2.6V Discharge Cutoff Voltage (see COMMENTS). Not designed for A or AA size (and smaller) cells (see COMMENTS).
• Cycle functions: Select a single Discharge/Charge cycle for periodic pack conditioning, or continuous "auto-repeat" cycles for reviving packs that have developed a memory, or for breaking in a new pack.
• Four multi-function, high intensity LED indicators. Status light glows during Charge and flashes when nearing Peak.
• Audible mode select tone signals for easy set-up
• Twin built-in miniature fans keep the charger cool, increasing efficiency and lifespan.
• Reverse polarity and overload protection
• Designed to charge sub-C battery pack.
• Five Year Warranty

COMMENTS:
Discharging cells smaller than sub-C size: Do NOT Discharge Cells Smaller than Sub-C Size. This includes A and AA size (and smaller) cells which are normally installed inside radio transmitters and so on. Discharge Current rate of the IntelliPeak is too high for such smaller cells and the wiring used to assemble such packs. Failing to avoid this will likely cause permanent damage to the cells and/or wiring in the packs, and possibly the equipment in which the battery is installed.

Fixed Discharge Cutoff Voltage: The IntelliPeak Charger has a fixed Discharge Cutoff Voltage setting of 2.6V. This Cutoff Voltage is not adjustable. If a specific Discharge Cutoff Value other than 2.6V is desired, monitor the pack voltage during Discharge with a separate voltmeter and manually terminate Discharge at such point as desired.
