• We RECOMMEND THAT THE INITIAL BATTERY CHARGING IS TO BE A MINIMUM OF 6-12 HOURS. By charging the battery for 12 hours, enables the cells to balance out, this enables the batteries to operate 100 %. This is also applicable in a Meter that has not been used for 6 month.  Don not over-charge.

• Testing also revealed that in extremely cold weather (around 34 degrees and below) the battery level could drop as low as 10% of the original charge if the meter (and LNB) were left exposed for an extended length of time.

• We recommend to keep the meter battery charged as high as possible in extreme weather. 

• Keep the meter (and LNB if practical) warm until time for use.

• Battery is guaranteed not to be DOA (Dead on arrival, i.e. non functional).  

• The Mfg warranty does not cover the battery.
