Product Overview
Ansmann Energy 16 Plus Battery Charger is compatible with AAA, AA, C, D and 9V E NiMH and NiCd cells. It can even charge NiMH and NiCd batteries simultaneously. It is capable of handling 1-12 AAA/AAs, 1-6 C/D cells, or 1-2 9V E cells. Charging is controlled by a microprocessor and battery status is monitored and available on the LED indicators. Additionally, the ENERGY 16 PLUS features dual USB power banks to enable you to charge your smartphone or other mobile device.
Your batteries will benefit from an automatic refresh function, as well as automatic switching to trickle charging to prevent self-discharge when they are left in the unit. Reverse polarity protection safeguards the batteries and charger against damage when batteries are installed incorrectly. A quick capacity test can be performed on each battery, too, with results reported about 10 seconds after battery insertion.
The charger runs on 100-240 VAC power for worldwide use, and includes a 6' power cord. Depending upon battery size, it will supply 60-1000mA of current per cell
Features:
- Compatible with AAA, AA, C, D and 9V E NiMH and NiCd batteries.
- Will charge NiMH and NiCd cells simultaneously.
- Capable of handling 1-12 AAA or AA, 1-6 C or D, or 1-2 9V E batteries. Charging begins automatically as soon as contact with the battery is made.
- Charging is controlled by a Delta-V microprocessor, and the status of each battery is individually monitored and available on the LED indicators. The charger detects the difference between the charging voltage and the charge in the batteries, and stops the process when the batteries are full, in order to prevent overcharging. Current is adjusted automatically.
- LED flashes green in pre-charging mode, red and green in refresh mode, and red when a faulty battery or alkaline cell is detected. A constant red LED indicates fast charge mode, while a constant green one means a battery is full and trickle charging is in progress.
- Dual USB power banks allow you to charge the majority of USB-powered mobile devices, including smartphones.
- Features an automatic refresh function and performs automatic switching to trickle charging to prevent self-discharge when batteries are left in the unit.
- Reverse polarity protection safeguards the batteries and charger against damage when batteries are installed incorrectly.
- Faulty cell and alkaline battery detection ensure that the charger does not attempt to charge bad or non-rechargeable batteries.
- Quick capacity test can be performed on each battery, too, with results reported about 10 seconds after battery insertion. The LED indicators display the following colors: green for over 80% of the nominal capacity, orange for 25-80%, and red for under 25%.
- Automatic diagnosis of inserted cells prompts charger to begin pre-charging or refreshing, if needed, prior to the regular fast charging process.
- Runs on 100-240 VAC power for worldwide use. Depending upon battery size, it will supply 60-1000mA of current per cell.
