MERCURY III JUMBO INSTALLATION INSTRUCTIONS During the first stage of operation the battery charger charges the battery until full. Afterwards, the unit goes into a stage which charges the battery periodically. This reduces the battery temperature and reduces the loss of electrolytes which ultimately increases the service life of the battery. As a result of stopping the charging process, the power consumption is reduced and only consumes 1/11th of the typical power.
