• A fully-discharged pack will be charged com-
pletely in 5.5 hours, and then the GREEN indica-
tor on the SBH-11 will glow.
• It takes 10 hours for full charge with the SAD-25
connected to the transceiver directly.
Important Notes:
The SAD-25 is not designed to power the trans-
ceiver for operation (transmission).
Do not leave the charger connected to the trans-
ceiver for continuous periods in excess of 24 hours.
Long term overcharging can degrade the Lithium-ion
battery pack and significantly shorten its useful life.
