The PM880 is powered by a rechargeable NiMH battery pack.
When you receive the PM880, you will need to fully charge the
pack. The pack must be charged 4-5 hours until the amber LED
on the charger goes out to receive the maximum charge. When
fully charged, the pack provides 16 to 24 hours of continuous
operation, depending on the probe type and PM880 usage. An
internal battery gauge indicates the remaining power in the pack.
Before you charge the battery pack you must make sure the
charger is properly configured. Use the instructions below to
properly charge the battery pack.
