Why is my device's red indicator light on, but it's not charging?
To troubleshoot this, please provide your charger's model number. Then I can offer potential solutions.

Batteries and start-up
Much is said about how the battery, in modern
vehicles, must supply a constantly increasing
number of accessories (radio, satellite navigation
system, air conditioning, pressure sensors, lighting
system, windscreen wipers, window defroster, etc.).
This increases the speed of discharge of the battery
while, on the other hand, the alternator charges
the battery. If the trip is short (home-workplace,
for example) then the energy supplied by the
alternator is not enough to fully recharge the battery,
especially if the battery is not a high performance
type. In some cases this problem can be overcome
by using a high capacity battery.
But if this unit is not properly maintained by the user
then it inevitably leads to a loss of performance.
And even though modern batteries are designed to
resist extreme climatic conditions it is inevitable that,
during the winter, the battery performance drops.
This is caused both by a reduction of the chemical
reactions in the battery and by a greater demand
for energy from the starter motor.
The following chart shows the performance trend
as the temperature changes. This is why engine
ignition failure is generally a wintertime problem.

Battery capacity
How a traditional electromechanical booster operates
Using a starter to start a vehicle becomes
necessary every time the storage battery does not
have enough energy to power the starter motor. In
this case the energy that is required can be taken
by connecting the starter to the mains power and
setting it to start-up mode. To find which starter
is suitable for the needs of our battery we just have
to find the values given, on the battery rating plate,
at “FAST COLD DISCHARGE CURRENT” and
compare these with the values indicated under the
item “Starting current 1 Volt/C EN 60335-2-29” on
the starter. These values must be similar.
This is the case when the battery is fully
discharged. If the battery is charged in advance
then a less powerful starter can be selected.

LEXICON
What is
a battery ?
A battery is a device able to
store electrical energy,
supplied to it by a direct
current generator during
charging, in the form of
chemical energy. It returns
this energy, in the form of
direct current electrical
energy, during discharging.
This energy storage and
return process is repeated
for the entire life of the
battery. The main
parameters that define
batteries and their
performance levels are:
■ Rated voltage
■ Rated capacity
■ Fast discharge
current (at -18 °C).
and are indicated on
the rating plate that
accompanies every battery:
■ Rate voltage
The voltage difference
measured across the poles
of the battery with the
circuit open and after a
minimum 4 hours
stabilisation time.
■ Capacity (Ah)
The quantity of charge
that can be achieved
by discharging a storage
battery at a specific
discharge rate (current)
down to a preset voltage.
■ Fast discharge
current (A)
Indication of the power the
battery is able to deliver.
This value is measured by
discharging a fully charged
battery at -18 °C at
a constant preset current.
RATE
VOLTAGE RATE
CAPACITY FAST DISCHARGE
CURRENT
Why a battery discharges ?
Car unused for a prolonged period.
Difficult or repeated starting.
Use of the car for short trips that do
not permit the battery to recharge.
Inefficient dynamo or alternator.
Leaving lights or other parts of the
electrical system on for long periods
with the car ignition off.
All these causes make it necessary
to check the battery in order to avoid
difficult start-ups that help cause
premature battery wear. It may happen
that the battery is no longer able to store
energy, usually caused by inadequate
maintenance or incorrect use.
In this case one or more battery cells
have short-circuited: recharging, in this
case, is useless and the only thing to do
is to replace the battery.
Charging a battery
Battery charging can be done for different
time periods depending on the capacity
of the battery, its state of charge and the
current we want the appliance to deliver.
Slow charges are made with fairly low
currents that in any case do not exceed
approximately 1/10th of the capacity of
the battery.
Fast charges are made with higher
currents, approximately 1/5th of the
capacity of the storage battery. During
fast charges the charging time is generally
controlled by a timer to avoid battery
overheating.
Slow charges are preferable for a longer
battery life, preventing the battery from
overheating. Note that the exact state
of charge of the battery can only be
determined by a hydrometer that can
measure the specific density of the
electrolyte.
Guideline electrolyte density values are:
(kg/l at 20 °C):
• 1.28 = battery charged ;
• 1.21 = battery half charged ;
• 1.14 = battery discharged.
The battery charging time can vary
according to:
Ambient conditions (Cold/Hot) ;
State of the battery
(Discharged/Very discharged);
Age of the battery (Old/New).3

Frequently asked questions
The ID CHARGER has a digital display that allows you to view the charge settings. The I CHARGER does not have a display.
The "stand-by" mode on the CYBER BOOST 1000 is used to power vehicle memories if the battery needs to be disconnected. This is important because it prevents the loss of data in the vehicle’s computers.
The PPS 70 is a heavy-duty jump starter that uses a powerful internal battery to start vehicles with flat batteries. It has a peak current of 7000 amps with 12 volts and 3500 amps with 24 volts, which is enough to start most commercial vehicles.
The START 320.2 is protected against overloads and inverted polarity. It also has a fuse to protect the device from damage.
The FAST 10 can charge 12 and 24 volt batteries. It is ideal for recharging high-capacity batteries.
The VELOX range is designed for a wide range of vehicles, from scooters to trucks. The CRA range is specifically designed for big-engined vehicles such as tractors and trucks. Both ranges are equipped with ammeters and voltmeters.
