The document introduces an advanced fuzzy logic peak detector with automatic cut-off circuit and high efficiency P-Channel MOSFET drive transistors. It can pulse current to peak charge NiCd and NiMH batteries to 100% without overheating. It features built-in Artificial Intelligence to eliminate false peaks and supports both AC or DC input. Peak Charger 1 offers two fixed charge rates, a minimum 3.5A peak charge current for 6 cell (7.2V) or 7 cell (8.4V) sub-C size battery packs, and a 1A peak charge for 8 cell (9.6V) transmitter batteries. Peak Charger 2 offers a minimum 3.5A peak charge current for 6 cell (7.2V) or 7 cell (8.4V) sub-C size battery packs. It provides 100mA trickle charge rates for 6 and 7 cell packs, and 50mA trickle for 8 cell Tx packs. The charger is equipped with two multi-function, high intensity LEDs for easy set-up and has fused overload, thermal, and reverse polarity protection. It is designed for charging only nickel-cadmium or nickel-metal hydride rechargeable batteries, and may cause damage to other types of batteries. Automotive type battery chargers should not be used to power the charger. The charger should be kept away from water, moisture or foreign objects, and the air intake holes on the charger should not be covered to prevent overheating. It is not recommended to charge batteries containing fewer than 6 cells. The charger should not be left unattended while charging, and if it becomes hot, the battery should be disconnected and input power should be removed from the charger immediately. The charger or battery should be allowed to cool down before reconnecting.
The DuraTrax IntelliPeak Twin Pulse Charger is designed to peak charge two battery packs simultaneously using independent high-rate peak charge circuits. It features advanced fuzzy logic peak detection and automatic cut-off to charge nickel-cadmium (NiCd) and nickel-metal hydride (NiMH) batteries to 100% without overheating. The device includes built-in artificial intelligence to eliminate false peaks and offers AC or DC input options.
