What Kind of Charger Should I Use with My SpringBoard?
WARNING! Use only the battery charger that came with your SpringBoard. Other chargers may damage the batteries or the SpringBoard. Using a different charger may void your warranty or extended warranty on your device, also. If you lose or damage your charger and need to order a replacement: Below is the link to our E-Store that will give you the part number and price for replacement chargers. Please call our Sales Department, 1-800-262-1933, with the part number of the charger you need. If the device user is covered by a funding source, please call our Funding Department, 1-800-262-1984. IMPORTANT! Plug the charging tip into your device carefully and gently until the charging light begins to blink. (The charging light is on the front of the case by the icon of a lightening bolt. See pictures below.) Forcing the charger in too far can damage the unit.
Battery Indicator: When the LED in the battery box comes on, charge the battery. When you plug in the charger, the LED in the lightning bolt will flash. A rapid flash indicates fast-charging; a slow flash indicates that the battery is charged, but it will continue to trickle charge as long as the charger is plugged in.
If the charging light doesn't blink when you plug in the charger, we recommend testing your charger with a volt meter to verify that the charger has 15 Volts of output current. If you do not have a volt meter, you can take your charger to a local computer store, such as Radio Shack, and have it tested for free. If the charger tests out OK, but the charging light still does not come on, please call the PRC Service Department for further instructions, 1-800-262-1990. |
