USB charger Fenix ARE-D2 (Li-ion, NiMH)

Product description

Compact dual-channel USB charger Fenix ARE-D2 for Li-ion and NiMH/NiCd batteries. When a charged Li-ion battery is inserted, it also functions as a backup power source (PowerBank) for charging USB devices (lights, mobile phones, MP3 players and more). Thanks to its compact dimensions, the charger is particularly suitable for travelling. It automatically detects the inserted battery type and selects the optimal charging algorithm. The charger is equipped with an LCD display that shows the current battery voltage, the type of batteries being charged and other information. Each charging slot is monitored independently so that batteries of different sizes, capacities and even different chemistries can be charged at the same time (both Li-Ion and NiMH/NiCd can be charged at the same time). For each slot, a charging current of 500 - 1000 - 2000 mA can be selected. The highest charging current can only be selected when charging a single battery.

The charger can charge Li-ion batteries type: 26650, 22650, 25500, 21700, 18650, 17670, 18700, 14650, 18500, 18490, 18350, 17500, 14500, 16340, RCR123 and NiMH batteries size AAA, AA, C. Li-ion 21700 and 20700 batteries with protective electronics can also be charged in the charger.

USB charger parameters

• Two independently monitored charging channels, CC/CV charging algorithm.
• Three levels of charging current - 500 mA, 1000 mA and 2000 mA. The charging current can be selected for each channel separately. For NiMh/NiCd batteries, the maximum charging current is 1000 mA. A current of 2000 mA can be charged using only one slot.
• The following li-ion batteries can be recharged in the charger: 26650, 18650 li-ion, 17670, 18500, 14500, 16340, RCR123. High-quality rechargeable pencil and micro-chargeable batteries can also be charged.
• Protection against reverse insertion of batteries, short circuit, overcharging and too deep discharge.
• Weight of the charger 92 grams.
• Dimensions 123 x 62 x 30 millimetres.
• Included charger and USB cable.

Charging the batteries

Plug the charger into the USB. The display will light up. When the batteries are inserted, the display will show the battery type and charging status. The button is used to switch the charging current in the following order: 1000 mA - 500 mA - 2000 mA. The charging current can be selected during the first 8 seconds of charging (the battery icon flashes on the display).

Charging USB devices (use as a backup USB power supply)

Insert a charged battery into the charger (in slot B). Plug the USB cable into the USB output connector and connect the device to be charged. Hold down the B button for 2 seconds to activate the power bank function in low current draw mode (100 mA). Another hold activates full current draw. During charging (e.g. of a mobile phone), USB 5V appears on the display.

Notice

• Do not charge Li-ion cells that have gone through an over-discharge condition (below 2V).
• When using the charger, please observe the safety principles.
• We recommend using good quality batteries.
• It is not designed for charging LiFePO4 batteries.

Warranty
