), rather than going into the “Auto-Float/PulseMode” (blinking
Green
). Your battery may not be able to be properly charged, or
conditioned. However, by pressing the button the unit will go into
the pulse mode / desulphation stage. You may then be able to save
your battery. Leave your battery connected to
BatteryMINDer
for a
minimum of 1 week before re-testing it.
Note: If your battery does not have a “resting”* voltage of
6.25
volts MINIMUM
it cannot be properly charged or de-sulphated.
Replace Battery
( *Resting voltage = Voltage in a battery that has not been charged
or discharged within 10 hours MINIMUM)
IMPORTANT:
BatteryMINDer
will have no electrical output
unless it is connected to a “healthy” battery. Testing it with a Volt or
Amp meter, without the unit being connected across a good bat-
tery, will result in a false reading. If you experience any problems or
are not sure of how to properly use/connect your
Battery-MINDer
,
please call our Toll-Free Technical Support line, 800-379-5579
number and leave us a detailed message explaining your problem.
Note: If your battery does not have a “resting”* voltage of
5.25
volts MINIMUM
it cannot be properly charged or de-sulphated.
Replace Battery
( *Resting voltage = Voltage in a battery that has
not been charged or discharged within 10 hours MINIMUM)
Use your
BatteryMINDer
on your battery at ALL times (winter,
summer, spring or fall) that your battery will not be used for 4 days
or more. This will prevent new Sulphation from taking place and will
lead to dramatically increased battery life and performance. DO
NOT REMOVE BatteryMINDer from your battery unless you place
the battery back in service.
FAILURE TO KEEP
BatteryMINDer
CONNECTED TO YOUR BAT-
TERY AT ALL TIMES THE BATTERY IS NOT IN SERVICE WILL
AFFECT PERFORMANCE CLAIMS.

PARALLEL
CONNECTION
CHARGING MULTIPLE BATTERIES
Batteries of the same type only (engine starting, deep cycle,
sealed, gelled, agm, maintenance-free) can be charged at the
same time in parallel (+ to +, – to –).
Connect each 12v battery to one another using 18 – 20 gauge (
lamp cord type ) insulated wire, stripped at the points you wish it to
be in electrical contact with the posts of each battery. VDC
Electronics, Inc. does not provide any type of wire harness to
accomplish this due to the many variations in size and terminal con-
figuration.
Simply attaching
BatteryMINDer
to the + and – terminals of the
same 6v battery. NOTE: If
BatteryMINDer
does not start blinking
within 72 hours of the time you attached it to fully charged batter-
ies (1 - 4) YOU MUST DISCONNECT ONE OR MORE OF THE
BATTERIES UNTIL BatteryMINDer begins to blink, or press the
de-sulphation button to begin de-sulphating batteries. Failure to do
so will cause the unit to possibly burn out, voiding the warranty.
