This can only be done with a DC changer that must be able to produce a voltage of up to 52V.

Safety

  • Using a DC charger to recharge batteries can be dangerous if done at to high of an amperage and if not monitored when the battery is reaching voltage. Over voltage can lead to damage of lithium cells and fires.
  • These batteries must NOT be left unattended overnight whilst charging.

Instructions
