EverActive NC3000 Charger: Understanding 2.2 Display on First Charging Channel - Damage Indicator?

Question

Hello, I have an Ever Active NC3000 charger. When connected to the network, the numbers 2.2 appear in the first charging channel, as in the movie. Does this mean that the charger is damaged ???

Welcome. Don't worry, everything is fine - 2.2 only means charger revision.

Okay, but in this video, when he turns on the charger, these numbers do not show? https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=CCtgsIXSdYY

Here again I found that it shows up, but I do not know what my colleague is saying in Soviet https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=o4HAOgRQYIE

The software version (FW) is displayed ... is something not working that bothers you? Maybe there was some version of the software that didn't do it, but v2.0 and v2.2 are showing (30s on YouTube is enough to find out). The video you provided does not show the display when you connect the power supply (it is at such an angle that even if something was displayed, it would not be visible).

Can anyone of EverActive NC3000 users check the voltage on the display at which the charger ends the charging cycle?
It is about the precise capture of the battery voltage when the display goes into FULL mode.
For me it is always 1.56V, and when discharged it ends the mode at 0.9V

Wiesmin · Answer

The temperature of the charged cell may also come into play when charging. For me, discharge also ends at 0.9V.

The value of the Ni-MH battery voltage at the end of the charging process strictly depends on the specific battery, charging current and temperature - this value should not be precisely defined or imposed by the charger.

A good charger detects when the maximum voltage is reached for a given battery - in my NC-3000 I have already observed different end voltages in the range of 1.45 to about 1.55V.

Hi. I wanted to refresh the topic but with a slightly changed question.
Namely, a 1000mAh battery. When it is fully charged (the message full on the display) and after checking it turns out to be 109mAh. Is it possible? Of course, it applies to the nc3000 charger. I checked on two batteries:
- with green Vatra (1000mAh) the display shows full at 109mAh
- with black enelop (approx. 960mAh) the display shows full at 126mAh
Is everything OK?

baltrade · Answer

The mAh values obtained during charging are not the same as the battery capacity.
This is just information how many mAh was needed to recharge such a battery to full. The 100 mAh indications usually mean that the battery was already charged when it was installed in the charger. The NC-3000 charger can measure the actual capacity (from discharge) - the Discharge Refresh, Charge Test and Discharge modes are used for this.

Thank you very much for the information. Quickly, honestly and clearly. This is a good message. Thanks again. Greetings.
