Power and charging times

The FS/2 and FS3 charging currents are significantly different, which affects
charging times as shown in the following table. The times shown are for
guidance only, and are for fully recharging a discharged battery:

Note 1: From BIOS 1.02 the charging rates on MP2500 were increased as
shown. Also "charging complete" messages were added as follows – after
8.5 hours for NiCd and 12 hours for NiMH batteries. (The charge times in
the table are maximums. The charge current is reduce to maintenance after
these times, not the "charging complete" times.)
Note 2: Figures marked * apply to FS3 BIOS version 1.07x.
