    I think you meant it is the ‘successor’ to the G7200 series as opposed to the ‘predecessor’, but otherwise a good review of this product.

    One of the best reviews of genius 10.. This actually explains nicely each mode and how to select it & what exactly each mode does.. Very nice for a novice home owner, who wants an all round general purpose battery charger (kids car +my car).
    Thank you.

    Good review. Note this: some batteries, depending on the capacity and condition, will take up to 48 hours in the maintenance mode, to fully reach 100%. The single green LED will pulse until the DC voltage reaches 15.5 DC. (FACT CHECK THAT) Then the LED will turn solid Green. This is not stated in the directions, but NOCO tech support will "school" you if you are having trouble. I recharged up a standard 585 CCA lead acid battery. It took around 36 hours before the Green light turned solid. To convert the CCA to Ah, multiply the CCA rating by .7 (.725 to be precise.) I have used NOCO products for a few years now. This Genius 10 is a fine unit.

    Very good video. Very informative and clearly explained. One thing you could add is the different ways the 4 charging lights(red red orange and green) behave in different scenarios relating to the charging process. I’ve noticed with the batteries I’ve been charging over the last few days that the solid green is really the only one that signifies that a battery is actually fully charged, would this be correct?

    @sirkildalot8409 4 роки тому +4

    I just bought one of these as I have a deeply discharged battery and I wanted a charger with the force mode. To begin with however I just wanted to charge a standard 12v car battery. When I plugged it in I expected a steady progression through the charge level indicators from one red block through to the full bar (two reds, an orange and a green). What actually happens is the first red blinks for a while, then the first goes solid and the second blinks a coup,e of times then it goes down to no lights then, after a while it goes up to the Amber for one pulse then back to nothing. It doesn’t seem to progress through the bars but seems to be going up and back down? Is it charging? Is the battery OK? Why don’t the instructions tell you what to expect and what the changing lights mean?

    • @HighTechBatterySolutionsInc
      @HighTechBatterySolutionsInc  4 роки тому +7

      Leave it connected, it sounds like you have an issue with your battery - possibly that it's not retaining the charge. The charger will error out if the battery is not recoverable.

    My charger cycles up to green all charging led's still flash including green sits there for about 5 seconds and then starts over . Is this normal or do i have a defective charger.? Thank you.. After an hour passed it is no longer cycling. 3 solid bars and green pulsing only. I know believe the intial period may have been some kind of maintanance mode t but i didnt initiate it. Might be an important thing to include in the manual lol.

    • @HighTechBatterySolutionsInc

      Do you have another battery that you can try the charger on to see if you can replicate the problem? I have seen this once before and it was an actual battery issue, but if the same thing happens on another battery you know is good (like your everyday driver) then its time to start looking at the charger.

    What setting would you use if your leaving a car sitting for 4 month? It has a 12 volt battery in it. So red on red black on black right? Should it be plugged in prior to connecting it to the terminals? We don't have the box left it 2000 miles away...... How do you hold it to the wall?

    • @HighTechBatterySolutionsInc
      @HighTechBatterySolutionsInc  9 днів тому

      Yes, red to red and black to black. If you have it hooked up wrong the charger will error out and let you know. I recommend connecting the charger to the battery first and then plugging it, but thats not a necessity - any order will work. The charge mode you want to select will depend on what type of battery you have in the car. If its a standard flooded battery then your going to leave it on the 12V mode. If its a newer AGM series battery then your going to leave it on the AGM setting. In terms of wall mounting - the mounting bracket and strap combo are in the box with the charger. If its 2000 miles away then its time for you to get creative if mounting it is a must :).

  • @doctorwanchai1
    @doctorwanchai1 3 роки тому +1

    The pros of this new model year are every all car and bike battery types chargeable, the cons is the NOCO connectors is very hot the result is charging voltage is lower than described for example the charging voltage for AMG battery is only 14.1 Volts lower than 14.7 Volts as described. This is the event that I had monitored to charging voltage graph . I had replaced the connectors with Anderson power pole connectors and charging cables with the thicker cables.

  • @michaelweddle

    I'm charging my car battery (12V, Lead/Acid) with the NOCO Genius 10. The Charge LED's (25% & 50%) blink red then go solid, then the 75% blinks orange, but then, usually, it goes back down to the 25% and starts over again. Once it did go to the 100 LED, turned green, but then again went back to the 25%. Is this normal when charging?

    • @HighTechBatterySolutionsInc
      @HighTechBatterySolutionsInc  11 місяців тому

      Thats not normal, I have seen this happen to us when attempting to charge batteries that were either to far gone and not able to retain a charge or from batteries that had a constant drain on them while charging. Either way I think its worth taking the battery into a shop to get tested to see whats going on.

    • @HighTechBatterySolutionsInc
      @HighTechBatterySolutionsInc  7 днів тому

      I am assuming you're charging the battery while the car is off, so with that assumption I'll move onto trouble shooting. The charger is registering a state of charge based off the voltage it sees on the battery and its charge acceptance rate. If the battery is taking a charge, it may be a capacity issue - if a load is placed on the battery it immediately drops in voltage. There is a good chance of that being the case if it's a 4+ year old flooded battery. I recommend letting it charge till you hit the solid green light, if it doesn't happen within the next 4 to 6 hours it's time to get the battery physically tested.

    I have an Interlock Device in my car and it drains my battery. I bought this Noco and charge my car 3-4 times a week. However, I needed a jump today as my battery was at 8.9v
    Any suggestions would be so appreciated!

    • @HighTechBatterySolutionsInc
      @HighTechBatterySolutionsInc  4 місяці тому +1

      I would recommend getting the battery tested ASAP to eliminate the battery as being the issue first and foremost. If the battery is testing good, then I would suggest contacting the company that installed the interlock to see why the drain is so high. We have seen this a few times, sometimes customers are able to take the vehicle back in to get an adjustment made to the interlock to either draw less, or not draw at all until the key is engaged.

    If your battery needs to be repaired will it automatically detect this and do it for you or will you have to select it? And if you’re unsure if you put a perfectly fine battery on repair mode will it damage it the battery?

    • @HighTechBatterySolutionsInc
      @HighTechBatterySolutionsInc  3 роки тому +1

      The charger will detect sulfation during its regular charge mode and begin the repair process as part of the algorithm. I always caution people to not overuse the repair mode. Due to the higher charging voltages used in that mode, it could shorten the life span of AGM batteries if used excessively.

    • @HighTechBatterySolutionsInc
      @HighTechBatterySolutionsInc  8 днів тому

      The NOOC GENIUS10 unit is solid 10A charger designed for both automotive and deep cycle usage. A fast charge will depend on the capacity of the battery, to find the charge time you take the capacity of the battery and divide it by the output of the charger. The resulting number will be the total time in hours it will take to charge assuming its been fully discharged.

    Nice review. What voltage does the charger allow the battery to drop to before it kicks in and starts charging again? I had mine get my battery up to about 14V and when I checked on it a couple of weeks later it had dropped to 12.5(ish)V and the green light was solid, indicating full charge still. I switched the charger off and on again and it started the charging process and had the battery back up to 13V in a few minutes. Is there an issue? Battery only a few months old. Thanks.

    • @HighTechBatterySolutionsInc
      @HighTechBatterySolutionsInc  Рік тому +1

      I ran your question by NOCO, here is their official response: It sounds like the battery may not be holding a good resting voltage, and the charger may be timing out.
      The maintenance trickle charge should start when the voltage drops below 12.7V, and the LED should be pulsing green. If the battery is not holding a good resting voltage, the charger will timeout and stop applying the charge to prevent overcharging the battery. If the voltage drops below 12.4V the charger will start the full charge over.

    Haven’t made my purchase yet. Perhaps it’s clear to everyone but me but I have a question related to the Genius 10. When charging a 12 V battery do I always have to select “repair” mode when I start charging (or does routine charging begin after simply selecting “type” of battery)? Is “repair” mode ONLY selected when reconditioning a battery is necessary?

    • @HighTechBatterySolutionsInc
      @HighTechBatterySolutionsInc  4 роки тому +1

      You would only select repair mode if you know the battery is sulfated. When you're going to charge a 12V battery you would start by selecting the proper battery type - you do not have to select repair mode to begin charging any battery.

Either way it’s unusable, so be prepared to purchase one with something defective and having to send it back. Don’t expect to buy it and then use it, unless you’re willing to splice the wires and void your warranty. What else might go wrong with this product along with bad connectors ?

    The pictures in the manual suggest when it's at full charge, the first 3 orange lights are off. Is that correct? Also, as soon as it hits full charge, it'll probably go into maintenance mode right away. I don't think we'll ever see the solid green at all.
    I've been charging my 12V 60Ah car battery since last night and 12+ hours later, I'm looking at 3 solid orange and pulsing green. Just hoping this is the expected behavior and it's in maintenance mode.

      When I have seen this in our shop it either means the battery itself has an issue such as a weak cell, or the battery heavily sulfated.

    • @HighTechBatterySolutionsInc

      Deep cycle batteries will lose a % of their charge every day when sitting idle, so depending on how long it sat it's certainly possible. Since the battery is so new I would not worry about using the repair mode. This is for batteries that are on the older side and heavily sulfated.

    Thanks for all the explanations. Can repair mode be used on an AGM battery? I keep getting Battery Not Hold Charge error. Should I try the Repair mode? Thx.

    • @HighTechBatterySolutionsInc
      @HighTechBatterySolutionsInc  3 роки тому

      If you keep getting the No Hold Charge error then you have nothing to lose by trying the repair mode. If it errors out in the repair mode then your looking at more than just capacity loss as an issue with the battery. I always recommend the repair mode be used only necessary with AGM series batteries. The reason being is that the repair mode can cause gassing in the battery and as you know with a sealed AGM series - you can't replace that lost water.

      Most likely because it's the same exact process regardless of where the battery is located or the size of the battery.

      First move I would take it to get a reading on the voltage of the battery itself to see where you're at. If the battery is flatlined or at a very low voltage you can try using the force mode on the charger to wake it up. If that doesn't work then there may be an issue with the BMS on the battery or another way to wake it up without using a charger. I would recommend reaching out to the manufacturer of the battery at that point for guidance.

      If you hit the mode button on the GENIUS10 charger and it's still not coming off of standby then your connection between the battery and charger is broken, or the battery is below 2V. If the battery is below 2V you can use the force mode on the charger to boost the voltage up however I recommend connecting it directly to the battery if thats the route you need to go.

      Good question, I'm not 100% sure on this so I would recommend only using the manual repair mode on batteries that are disconnected from the vehicle. The problem is a lot of the newer cars have computer systems built in that I would assume could be affected by high voltage spikes - better to play it safe than sorry.
