* Delta voltage: When charging a battery, the voltage will continue to increase until the battery reaches its peak voltage. After it reaches this point, the voltage will begin to drop. This voltage drop is referred to as the

“Delta Voltage.” The sensitivity of this voltage drop can be adjusted for precise charging of your battery pack.
