                    This is the Great Planes ElectriFly
   Four Output DC Powered Battery Charger for Lithium Polymer Batteries only.

     The instructions for the ElectriFly PolyCharge4 charger state the
   built-in fan turns ON when a load is present on any of the four outputs.
       This is incorrect. The fan turns ON any time input power is applied
                  to the charger. We regret this error.
    **Do not use this charger with NiCd, NiMH or Lithium Ion batteries,**
                         **They are not compatible.**
 **Damage from misuse or modification of this charger voids the warranty.**

FEATURES: Four outputs independently Charge 1-4 cell Lithium Polymer batteries
          Automatically detects number of cells on each output-no switch to set
          "Constant Current/Constant Voltage" Charge method
          Each output features push-button START/STOP control, three-hour
            safety timer and dial to set battery capacity from 300mAh-3000mAh
          Audio and tri-color LEDs provide warnings for improper input voltage
             and output reverse polarity
          Built-in cooling fan
          Reverse polarity and current overload protection on input
          One year limited warranty (USA and Canada only)

INCLUDES: One Great Planes ElectriFly Lithium-Polymer battery charger with
            alligator clip input connectors & banana jack Charge outputs
          Instruction manual

REQUIRES: A 12V-15V DC Power Supply such as the Rivergate 15A DC Bulldog
           (RHCP2015) or an automotive battery able to provide at least
           14A continuous
          Charge leads w/banana plugs and battery connector to match battery
           Can use the following Charge leads:
            GPMM3105....CHARGE LEADS, BANANA PLUGS TO BEC CONNECTOR
            HCAP0101....FUTABA J Tx/Rx LEADS ALL RADIOS EXCEPT 9VAP
            HCAP0102....FUTABA J Tx/Rx LEADS 9VAP ONLY
            HCAP0105....JR Tx/Rx LEADS
            HCAP0106....HITEC Tx/Rx LEADS
            HCAP0108....CHARGE LEADS, BANANA PLUGS TO ALLIGATOR CLIPS
            HCAP0110....Tx BATTERY WITH 9V CONNECTOR, FUTABA J Rx CHARGE LEAD
          Other charge leads would need to be fabricated using HCAP0310
           Banana Plugs and a battery connector to match the battery.

SPECS:    General Specifications:
            Input Voltage: 12-15V DC
            Number of Outputs: 4
            Input Connectors: Alligator clips, hard-wired directly to charger
            Case Size: 8.2" x 1.5" x 5" (208x38x126mm)
            Weight: 21.8oz (617g)

          Output Specifications:
            Battery Type: 1-4 (3.7-14.8V) Lithium Polymer cells only
            Charge Control: Push-button
            Charge Termination: "Constant Current/Constant Voltage"
            Battery Capacity Range: 300-3000mAh (for batteries larger than
              3000mAh, full Charge time will exceed one hour)
            Fast Charge Current: 300mA-3.0A
            Status Indicators: Tri-colored LED and audible buzzer
            Charge Output Jacks: Banana jacks
            Safety Timer: 3-hour maximum Charge time
            Fuse: 20A replaceable auto type spade fuse

COMMENTS: The maximum voltage LiPo cells can receive during Charge is
            roughly 4.20V. It is not uncommon that after Charging LiPo battery
            packs containing multiple cells for the voltage to be slightly less
            than 4.20V per cell. This is normal. Cells which repeatedly measure
            under 4.10V after being Charged may require further evaluation.
            Cells which repeatedly measure under 4.00V after being Charged
            may require replacement.
