A rechargeable battery pack and a charging station are available as optional accessories.

in rechargeable NiMh battery pack (P/N 1001871, 2100mAh, 4.8V) in the breathalyzer device

battery packs or devices!
5.2.1 Charging
The rechargeable batteries can be recharged within the device, using the special charging
adaptor. The charging adaptor is connected to the device via the data interface connector.
While charging, the device will not be able to make any measurements. A toggling battery
symbol will indicate that charging is in progress and the device will switch off after some
seconds.
The charging time is around 4 hours, depending on the ambient temperature and initial
battery charge level.
If the rechargeable batteries are too empty to operate the device, a charging time of approx.
15 minutes will be sufficient to perform several measurements.
When the battery pack is fully charged, the charger will switch to trickle mode. Therefore the
device can remain connected to the charger without danger of overcharging the battery pack.
5.2.2 Function indicators on the charger
LED off – no device connected
LED green flashing – charging in progress
LED green on – charging finished
LED red flashing – Error
5.2.3 Charging with car adaptor
It's possible to use the charging adaptor with the 12V car adaptor cable. Connect the charger
to permanent 12V supply if available. If only ignition switched 12V are available avoid
frequent on/off cycles while charging and disconnect device after finishing the charging
process.
