Is it normal in 12V AGM charging mode that when the green light has already flashed once, i.e. the full charge is about to end, the voltage drops again and the device flashes orange, i.e. is back at 75%? Or is this due to the charging curve, which registers that the battery is still weak and needs more charge to maintain the final voltage?
The green light should stay green and be pulsing to let you know the charger is maintaining the battery - no matter how long you leave it. If it goes back to 1 bar red you could have a faulty and or dead cell that isn't able to hold a charge. I would connect a multimeter while its charging so you get a voltage readout in real time, as I did in the video below - then you can also make notes of the voltage before a charge - after a full AGM repair cycle charge - and a bit after (30m to 1h or longer) - if your cells are bad or dead the voltage will drop and if any cell is in fact dead your multimeter should read OL when its on resistance - therefore telling you that you have an open loop circuit within the battery. You can check my video here where I tried to revive my 7 year old Optima red top. It may help. ruclips.net/video/jcavuEIV-ws/видео.htmlsi=Cm7grvIk5zWddduo
Hi. Once I unboxed my NOCO 10, I plugged it into the wall to charge up the unit, but it doesn't state in the instructions or any video, on how long to fully charge the NOCO, before I can start clamping it to my battery for charging up.
You dont need to charge the noco at all. It is a battery charger itself that provides power from the wall immediately after you plug it in - simple plug and play here
No, no. I got mine, plugged in. When plugging into wall, ALL lights super briefly light up - Only the “power” button lights up thereafter. Left to charge overnight. Next day, today, if I hold “mode” down, only 12v lights up.
@@patDonahoe Is this a joke? It cannot get easier. You must be slow with technology or have not read the manual. I suggest you read the manual and stop blaming it on the company. Your issue is user ignorance.
Best review and deep dive of this product I e seen yet. Nice job.
@@landscapingspecialist heyyy thanks dude!! Super appreciate that and hope it helped! 🤘🏼
Helpful breakdown when I was searching for a charger, thank you
Glad it helped! 🤘🏻

This is a horribly-designed product as well.

they are utter rubbish.
